Just a meta-comment, but is this blog meant to be stream-of-consciousness? I found the prose very hard to read, and the phrasing to be quite jarring. Possibly too many commas or separate phrases?

Sorry to put you through that! I normally go back and edit my blog posts at least a little bit, but I wasn't very happy with this one, so I didn't bother. I didn't expect it to have a readership beyond whoever happened to look at planet.debian.org yesterday.

I agree with you. The structure of his thoughts could use some improvement.
