+ * This script collects information on visitors, based
+ * on their client session. It finds out which page they
+ * were on when they go there, and by virtue of sending
+ * that information to the logger, their IP. This is
+ * information that you're sending already, anyway, but
+ * I want you to know that this is what's going on.
+ *
+ * Which is why this script is not obfuscated. It simply
+ * grabs your document.referrer value, which (unless Do
+ * Not Track is enabled) will contain the location of
+ * the page you were on before you clicked a link to this
+ * page, and GETs that to my logger. That GET operation
+ * comes from your computer, so will have your IP as part
+ * of the HTTP headers.
+ *
+ * And that's all I really care about, because I want to
+ * know how many people visit this page, and roughly where
+ * they're from (gasp! IPs can be turned into rough
+ * geographical location O_O).
+ *
+ * If you want to know what logger.php looks like, hit up
+ * github. It's in referrer/logger.php
