Google as proof of my Burning Ears?

I've had the good fortune, for what it's worth, of being the first Hanselman, the first Scott Hanselman, and the 80th Scott ;) on Google for a while now.  So, basically, if you REALLY want to find me, you can.  There's really no excuse if you remember my last name. 

I walked into a few meetings last week and received the whole "Speak of the devil..." or "Your ears must be burning."  Every day or so I notice someone in my referrers list who arrived by searching Google for "Scott Hanselman." 

So, I see a few possibilities:

  • There are a lot of Scott Hanselman's (I know of four, a baseball player, a web designer, me, and a Canadian) out there and every once in a while they search for themselves for some reason.
  • There are a lot of Scott Hanselman's out there and OTHER people are searching for those guys
  • Someone out there was thinking about me and my ears should have been burning as they searched Google

From this very cogent logic, I have determined that my ears can no longer feel the burning.  Clearly, I'll need to see someone about this.
