I write a little post, hoping to get a few recs and make a few points about health care in Canada.

Much to my astonishment, the thread rises to the top of the Greatest and I'm being overloaded responding to posts.

Not only that, my post seems to have gone viral, with a diary on Daily Kos leading the way. It's picked up by bloggers and made into email spam.

My wife tells me "Well, that's it, your 15 minutes of fame"

And to think, I wasted it on a DU post!
