[BR-Crater] in the firehose firing line again

There was a big jump in traffic for the crater page when it got listed
on stumbleupon.com a few days ago.  That seems to have triggered a new
surge of activity... but only at night.

Now I see in the logs that we're in the Slashdot firehose queue again.
A user, Scot Wilcoxon, wrote a journal entry and submitted it for the
front page.  Fortunately he was courteous and sent me a heads-up note
about it too.  (Just like Brian did with the previous one.)  You can
see his journal entry at
   http://slashdot.org/~SEWilco/journal/165714

Also, Steve Loomis points out that Brian's submission from last month has
been revived from the rejection heap.  He did a search for "black rock"
in the firehose queue.  It's now listed as "coming soon", which sounds
like it's scheduled for posting.

So I guess our fate is sealed. :-)  Looks like it'll be on Slashdot today.
