As of this moment, we have a bunch of old stories back from the dead:

How are all these zombie stories rising from the dead all of a sudden?

What surprises me more is how they get there in the first place. I presume the ripple effect: When is becomes “popular,” more people see it and read it, thus raising its popularity even higher. But how they get there in the first place, I have no idea.

In the first place, links from the FP, or from the middle of FP articles, will often send links straight to the top of popular stories. But over time, those fade away, and other articles replace them. I would imagine they’d be new stories, but sometimes they’re old.

And that Blackbird story has a mind of its own...!

Those 400hp and 500hp LS stories from a couple days after the Blackbird have a mind of their own too!
