I thought I had a neat idea. I released an early version and shared with the #node.js room ( including TJ ). TJ came out with his ( much better ) version within 24 hours.

Kodos to TJ. It's the better project. I'm just glad he doesn't call me a crackhead and a thief on twitter.

Yeah. Those logs pretty much show the whole thing transpire.

I don't want anyone to get the wrong idea here. This specifics of this thing are pretty meaningless to me. I don't care about either of these projects. I don't think anyone else really cares either.

@visionmedia called me a liar and asked me to cite a specific example, so I complied.
