I wonder if there's a new article or review we can attribute that burst to.

I wondered that too. There is usually a few early each morning (here) corresponding to evening in Europe but today about double the usual with close to 50% division between MX and antiX.

Yes, being just off the Venezuelan coast, I am not surprised. In fact looks like Spanish is the principal language. Think that Spain was the first European country to
colonise Aruba but then the Dutch acquired it after one of the frequent wars that took place a few hundred years ago. It was the unusual flag that popped up on the torrent log that had me checking to see where and what Aruba was.
