I leave this blog open to comments and I welcome them.  However,  in order to keep, well, order, a few, simple rules are needed.  This being my blog, the PRIME rule here is that it’s MY blog, and I make the rules here.

1.  Keep your comments on topic, please, gentle reader.

2.  Please be polite.  Rudeness or insults will NOT be tolerated.

3.  NO FLAMING!

If you have a problem with any of these rules, see rule prime above.  If rule 1 is violated, you will get but one warning, and then with any further infractions comments will be deleted.  If  rules 2 or 3 are violated, your comment will, again,  not be posted, or even responded to.  It will be cast into the internet ether as if it, and you, had never existed.  If I find this to be a continuous problem, I will be forced to have people subscribe in order to read the blog.  So please, take a moment and think before you click that “submit” button.  Treat me and your fellow readers how you would want to be treated.
