Did you just take me to task for not directly responding to a point you made earlier and then, after I took the time to generate that response for you, pretend that hadn't happened at all? Are you conversing with me or just using me as an opportunity to riff for the thread? I doubt anyone's really reading this far down other than you and I.

no?

here's your partial response

>I don't own the post anymore and can't unpublish it. But even if I could: it's annoying that I can't just post my shitty first drafts of things to some random website and not have them get periodically featured on a huge, busy community. That's what blogs are for.

the first sentence does directly address it (choice) wrt to you and your blog (not pg's which he owns).

but the last sentence

>That's what blogs are for.

even according to you

>But even if I could

is the crux of what's at issue. and this you have not addressed anywhere that i can see
