I was so busy posting to a blog today that I almost didn't notice the Google ad that had crept in on my own site.It was for, of all things, a Washington Lobbying Firm! Pretty much a bunch of guy saying 'we can 'assist' the democratic process any way you like if you have enough dough'.
Sadly, I rotating I lost it and can't seem to get it back to show the darned thing.
However, what I did get was this one under the heading 'Global Warming'. What caused me to pause was the odd notion that in solving it you could 'win a trip.'
Now I am all for incentives and and rewards 'n all. but surely the powers that be can come up with a slightly more appropriate prize these days?

I believe in freedom of speech. But I also don't like bullies on blogs, even verbal ones, as they can drive away those with something valid to say... or offer.
Subjective is fine, but well argued and substantiated is even better. Calm and polite tops. Anything that crosses my personal line will not go up. There may be reasons given, but not guaranteed.
I'm not too keen on 'Anon' as a handle (and the content usually explains why), so if that's what you opt for it may not make it. Sorry.
