Here are the ten most viewed posts of 2017, not including permanent site components such as the home page, Downloads, Welcome, etc. Once again it seems I’ve become the Internet gateway for people wondering about spanking their wives.
What is it with spanking? This post has just over twice as many views as the second one.
2. Bipedal – The Savanna Theory
The interest in this continues. It spikes at the same times each year. School assignments?
After a big drop-off from #2, people seem to love these orchardist ants.
4. Bipedal – The Aquatic Ape Theory
The curve flattens from here on down. This one is probably spillover from #2.
The only Cloud of the Day in the top ten. That surprises me. And I wonder why this one in particular.
A perennial favorite, and a favorite of mine. Murders and murmurations.
This one also surprises me. A quirky little list.
8. 15 Answers to Creationist Nonsense
Wouldn’t it be nice if we could just point them at this and not have to deal with them over and over?
9. Milankovitch Cycles – Obliquity
The only top ten post that I actually wrote this year. Part of a demanding series.
10. Microsculpture – The Insect Portraits of Levon Biss
Oh, good. I’m glad the list includes a tribute to beauty and hard work.
So, that was 2017. What are the odds that spanking will be #1 again in 2018?
