SM,
You said to NN:

I obliged you before, but because we seem to both be following this thread which is addressing your article, because this is where the conversation began, because others are engaged in this same topic, for the sake of time following the same conversation in two places, and for various other reasons I believe this venue is suitable and that it would be much easier for us to navigate this one thread on your article.

That is my desire as well. There are a whole lot of people following this comment stream (apparently) and it is far better to not divide between two blogs the same conversation. I, for one, just don’t have time to be posting on both blogs so this is where I will stay and I appreciate if people interact with me here. I work very hard to keep the atmosphere here as cordial and the passion on issues not on people so I think this is a great venue. Thanks SM for agreeing!
