Hey, at least he mentioned us by name - which is more than I can say for 99% of the rest of the media.

Whenever I hear media call us "bloggers" it makes my head spin. Why are they so reluctant to call us by our name for heaven's sake??

Me, too! And a lot of the new signups insist on calling us a blog; I sound like the witch some accuse me of being when I try to correct them!

I have NO idea; we are not a blog; we are ORIGINAL material, most of it real time; my position has become bloggers come here and scavenge! (And then don't give us credit!)
