What seems to have caused you to excerpt your own blog, Leo?

[MrB]

Here’s how it goes -

You hear about Free Republic somewhere.
You go to the site, you read some articles, you read some replies.
You feel compelled to post a response to an article or post,
so you sign up.

You comment on posted articles for quite a while before you actually post an article from another source.

After you’ve been here for a considerable time and gained a good reputation, then you can post your own work.
This is called a “vanity post” around here.

That’s FR etiquette. You don’t sign up last week and post your own articles.

Thanks for posting. It was well written and thoughtful.
