I’m about to run out for a little while, but I’ve already gotten quite a few emails like these (I’m not going to post the grotesquely self-serving ones, merely the mildly self-serving ones:

Well-said! I don’t like the BSG posts (have never
watched the show) but I’ll defend your right to talk
about BSG till I’m blue in the face. Don’t let the

With respect to your defense of the corner, I’d put it this way. I enjoy The Corner because it is a chance for serious people to occasionally be a bit frivolous, mixed in with some occasional intellectual heavy lifting. (Don’t read Derb’s posts while operating heavy machinery.) I’d much rather have that than, say, Daily Kos, where non-serious people are given the opportunity to take themselves way too seriously.
