Reviewing our Commenting Policy

I feel that now is a good time to restate our commenting policy. I have even built it its own page.

Everyone is encouraged to share their opinion. As a rule we do not allow anonymous commenting on the site. I believe it keeps the conversation more civil.

If you have something to say, then say it. Unless you have a really good reason, like job security, don’t hide behind anonymity.

We only require a real, first name and a valid email address. We never reveal or use the email addresses in any way except to validate that this is a real person.

If you want to take potshots then do it over on the *news* sites. This site is meant to foster discussion.

As such, profanity, personal attacks and offensive content will not be published.

Thanks for your participation. I am very pleased with the growth in the site and since I’m not selling adds I don’t care about number of hits or page views, I care about quality discussion. Let’s keep the conversation going.

An exceptionally fair and reasonable policy.

We enjoy your blog enough to have included it in our “Blogs of Interest”, and hope you approve.
