I Thought It Was Dead And Buried

The Bikini Cavegirl hits just keep on coming.
One of them, however, came with a blast from the past: Alta Vista.
I saw that on my Web stats page and thought, "Alta Vista? People still use that?"
That thought was immediatel followed by, "And they're using it to do Bikini Cavegirl searches?"
Before Google came along Alta Vista was my search engine of choice. It was an invaluable asset that eventually lost its value as shinier, faster, and more relevant search engines came along.
But while I do remember it fondly, I thought it had closed up shop and disappeared into the annals of Internet history.
I guess there are stranger things in the world than dozens of people doing Web searches on Bikini Cavegirl, such as people doing Web searches on Bikini Cavegirl using Alta Vista.

It isn't so much a matter of wanting it to stop as simply wanting to understand it.
Amd don't think I don't recognize the reverse psychology here...you will never get that picture of me in a bikini that you want so desperately.
