Trouble With Comments (Updated)

I think I mistakenly rejected a comment when I meant to publish it, so if you recently commented and it didn't turn up, just comment again! But I will repeat what I've said before: I don't generally publish "anonymous" comments unless they're signed and I know the person or if the comments are pithy and not obnoxious. I generally don't publish rants although I may if I know the person or if it is not anonymous. I don't think the internet is a good place for a productive sustainable argument. Those are best left for times when people are together. I think it's too easy to be obnoxious and/or cruel online. It's easier to be inhuman. In person, we can better see each other as fellow human beans. (OK, and as beings.)
