Interactivity on the Blog

Regular readers of my blog (or even the occasional reader) will notice that I do not use my name or family names on the blog. I also do not show pictures of family members. The reason is simple: the blog is open to anyone to read. Unlike other internet sites, you do not have to be my "friend" to read the blog. Because the internet is open, I think it is a good idea to maintain some sense of privacy--at least the privacy of others. Hence, the absence of names and personal photographs.
You may, of course, respond--and it's nice when you do to agree, disagree, or just comment. At the end of each entry there is the word "comment" (in orange, I believe). If you click on "comment," a screen will appear for you to add a comment.
The host of the blog is Google, and Google does require that anyone who comments be registered with Google. It's easy and painless to register, and you only have to do it once. I have not been bombarded by advertisements or come ons from Google, and I do not think that anyone who registers with them has anything to fear.
I welcome your comments!
