Sorry, it was the damned "power shit" typo, and the mis-linked Fatwah

Lovely new stats! It'll take me a little while to work out what they all

Brilliant - well done.

Now then, it seems I am to be the first to nit-pick: please check the
code/coding used to identify the user agent. The absence of Outlook
Express in the stats is a little surprising considering its position in
recently published stats.

While you're at it, in alt.html's stats you and 'Ben' don't seem to
use any headers (or sigs) on your posts...

0 kbytes of headers and sigs, rounded to the nearest kbyte -- that may be
correct -- if only posted one or two messages. Will look into though.
