22. actually, JC complained about it the first time, too.
and I visited his blog (you know, the one that's had so many hits that KO must have seen it, yet is so small that he felt he didn't have to credit it the way he does other blogs... would that make it a 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath blog?) for the first time and saw that there were similarities but it wasn't the obvious case of plagiarism that JC is so certain has taken place. People do independently come up with similar ideas and given all the skepticism that's been floating around for years about the terror alerts, it's hardly surprising that a time-line correlating terror alerts with public events would be one of them. A lack of uniqueness doesn't detract from the quality of the work JC did, but to imagine that only he could have thought of it is hubris.
