Recognized in a blog

I'm touched.  Some blogs that I comment on pretty much pass me by, seldom speaking to me or acknowledging my presence.  Others I wish they would.  And some I do pretty well with, getting good feedback and dialogue.  So there was one with a story about the Boy Scouts capitulating against the gay rights juggernaut (which I updated my post with accordingly).  I noticed that all of the quotes were from scouts and scout masters who were supportive of ending the ban.  I mentioned that it was not only silly to think this was even a real story, but typical of the media and its tendency to propagate narratives rather than report   I said it with a little more flair (I tend to be a bit more sarcastic in some venues). And a great debate opened up, with almost three hundred hits on my comment alone (the combox was already filled), and over 40 direct responses (why can't I get those here!!!).  This was the one that caught my attention:

Nice.  I'm probably not the only one, but it's nice to be counted among those who see plainly the sun going down and the world spinning around.
