My blog just got linked from Wired. That's a month's bandwidth gone in 12 hours.

I'm getting really uncomfortable about getting so much publicity over something so horrible.

I can't help but think about Lucy's friend, lying there in hospital with 25% of his calf muscle and a chunk of the bone still lying in the underground somewhere.

This feel wrong, somehow.

Publicity isn't the same as praise or for that matter profit. You aren't really profiting from it, or benefitting very much other than by having your name infinitesimally better known.

And as you mention, this is probably costing you more than it benefits you, in a purely economic sense. You aren't profiting from the suffering of others; you're just helping several million other people understand events a little better.
