Comment Policy
Your comments are welcome, but please be considerate about the tone, length, and frequency of your comments in order to avoid dominating the conversation on the blog or discouraging others from joining the conversation. They must be relevant to the topic at hand and must not contain advertisements, degrade others, use ad hominem attacks, or violate laws or considerations of privacy. We encourage the use of your real name but do not prohibit pseudonyms as long as you don’t impersonate a real person. Repeat violators of the commenting policy may be blocked from further commenting.

Bloggers have the option of deactivating comments on their posts, either at the time of publication or thereafter. Commenting on posts with comments activated automatically closes twenty-eight days after publication.
