No one likes good comments more than me. But we need to rein things in a little bit again.
For your reference: The Comment Policy
I'm really not going to publish long comments. Tom has said no longer than the post itself, so let that be your guide.
You don't get to be snarky. Tom does. It's his weblog. Tom gets to be emotional and go off half-cocked if he wants. You don't.
Stuff that Tom would call stupid, relative to his own thinking, does not get published. E.g.,
Hopefully the Obama hordes from Mordor can be held off until 2010 and reinforcements can arrive in time to save the country.
This on a thread two posts after Tom said he doesn't go in for political hysterics.
No 'blogging in the comments' (Tom's term): There are lots of great weblogging services. Go use 'em. Win yourself an audience. But here, comment on Tom's posts.
Capiche?

Sean, is there any chance we could have a comments RSS feed in addition to a post feed?

great idea, ps. to my understanding, this is a non-trivial operation in Movable Type. so, as soon as someone wants to help me get it up and running, we can have it.
