Cross-Posting
Regulars have probably already noticed this, but due to my current residency at This Modern World, there will be a number of posts that will appear on both sites, though I don’t plan to label them as such. There’s a few reasons you’ll find posts appearing in both places :
Tom Tomorrow’s site enjoys a larger audience than mine does and I’d like the things I’ve written that I’m particularly proud of to be seen by as many people as possible. The readership of his site is different than my own and I enjoy the feedback. My site has comments and his doesn’t. I’ve said many times before that comments are one of the biggest reasons I do this blogging thing. While I can understand why he doesn’t have comments (bandwidth bills are a bitch and his high profile attracts tolls by the thousands), I still love the instant response from the loose-knit community that appears in the comments section here. For readers who have loyally supported this site for the past 2+ years, I want to make sure you can still read what I’ve written right here.
In his invitation to join the group blog, Tom said that cross-posting was cool, so most of my favorite posts will show up on both sites. That said, there will be plenty of posts that appear exclusively on one site or the other, so if you don’t read that site regularly for whatever reason, you’re totally missing out.

I just have to say that I am a devoted This Modern World reader, and I love (and I don’t use this word loosely) your postings on his site. You add a very intriguing new perspective, plenty of fascinating detail, and very witty and insightful commentary. Plus I truly adore endnotes. Your site is cool also, and the comments section is intriguing. I’m not sure I’d waste my time responding to the annoying ones, but that’s your choice. The guy who was worried about the ID vs. evolution stuff who asked a bunch of irrelevant questions–not worth your time. In so many ways, the “debate” over ID has absolutely nothing to do with science. It’s all about pushing a skewed religious agenda and conflating a very particular religious belief with public policy and public life, which includes education. People in Europe laugh when they hear about this “debate” since to many outside the US it seems as ludicrous as our bizarre interest in Britney Spear’s pregnancy or Jessica Simpson’s level of intelligence. Anyway, you rock and I’m glad you’re on TMW. I will keep my eye on you there and here. Kisses!
