Great Regulars: No, the reason I keep wanting to quit

is the intimacy and exposure of the blogscape. ("Blogosphere" is the name everybody else uses, but I've invented my own, slightly better word.) I am, because of my blog, "out there" in a way that, three years ago, I would have found inconceivable, terrifying. I still do. I am also, thanks to Thought Experiments (the title of my blog), exposed to the tribulations of an enormous extended family of commenters, linkers, gypsies, tramps, thieves and, worst of all, intellectuals. Being a nuclear type myself, this is traumatic.
