What happened to the Daniel Brandt article? Is he not notable?
If I never subscribed to this mailing list, I would have never heard of him. :)
Am I one of the few people who had heard of him? He was that anti-Google crank who ascribed his low search ranking to malice on their part. Of course, since then he's worked extremely hard to make himself as famous as possible, using Wikipedia to this purpose.
The first time I read his name I wondered if he was the same Danny Brandt that subbed for Jim West in Weird Al's band when I saw them at Tag's Tavern in Elmyra NY in 2000... I was relieved to find out it wasn't... I couldn't imagine that Danny Brandt being that much of a jerk. ;-)
