    No. I just have a remarkably similar name, and I hate Michael Sims.

    Once again, I speak from experience.

    My web host charges about $9 per month, and I get 150 hits per month. That works out to roughly 6 cents per hit.

    I only assume that Slashdot uses an equally economic web service.
