We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane or off topic. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
Superb--and our local council's building inspector would have as much chance of understanding the engineering behind that as a monkey would of understanding Hubble.
ReplyDeleteYeh, this is awesome stuff PC. I knew there was another reason for reading your blog - besides reading my own posts and wondering why nobody was commenting ;-)
