Thanks Bob, but I'd be content with a simple clarification of what a "blog" is supposed to be.
It's been my impression that a "blog" is similar to a vanity...
But bloggers post on their own personal web-page and keep babbling on and on and on ad nauseum like a daily diary.
I'm certain there must be some talented and interesting bloggers out there in cyberspace, or else it would be such a popular fad. But the shear popularity has also created far too much incoherent garbage to wade through, and I try to stick with more legitimate media sources to do some filtering (even though some of those may be somewhat small-scale and off-the-beaten-track.)

Anyway, there's no sense in beating a dead horse when there are other articles and issues to discuss.
Too many people get emotionally involved in the sideshow spats.
Those present a certain allure for our more lurid curiosities, but from a productivity perspective, they're a counterproductive diversion and complete waste of time.

I agree.

BTW, I appreciate your regular postings of these type of articles, though I don't always respond to you personally.

I get very tired of free-traitors selling my country and my work for their profit.

Many Thanks.
