I did, first thing I did in fact, but he (inconveniently for me) chose 
this moment to go on honeymoon!

I'm not sure they are actually being recorded, but the get requests 
look the same and it's hitting my server every time you hit the 
page(s) in question so it's annoying and without clarification I've 
disabled the Mint package until I understand exactly what's happening, 
or  the site in question stops hitting my server.
