I will be Opening Comments on this Blog

All the Top Ten Reasons I Closed Comments on this Blog are still intact. But there were some real encounters in the past month that made me realize that you got to put up with all the rotten sardines because occasionally you might catch or miss a golden fish. I think I am mixing up the metaphors but you get the point. And if you don’t have your net out there, etc… Perhaps this is how life works not just the comments? I still nurse my standing lament about not being able to have a real off-line connection even with the steady commentators. I  still deplore the anonymity in the comments but my lone protest will not change the entrenched culture. See above about the rotten sardines or sheep to be more accurate.

In addition there were some technical reasons, I couldn’t find a commenting platform to my liking, I am picky. But it looks like there is resolution to the technical problems in sight. At least there is promise dangling out there for the imminent release. And my email still works as always.
