So, I think I've talked to you before in general terms about blogging and why people do it and what reactions they're looking for. I follow this Personal Finance blog and there's this one post that I finally had to comment on.

(If I were a talented writer; complimented say, by a Noble Prize Winning author; I would write about my feelings. But I'm not).
