on the plus side, great to finally meet you; but this layout sucks, profoundly — way too much noise. Can’t you beg and steal a stripped-down page? This is way too tabloid and cross-sell for yr blog, imho.

I blame formerspook for being presumptuous enough to adopt the trademark blogspot harbour layout!

feedburner’s feed is ok, sorts the full-width graphic issues, don’t think it carries comments though:

also, ‘PRIZES’ are good, but where’s the graphic to buy a history and history in the making bumper sticker?

(btw any Belmont readers know wth happened with the long-dark Kent’s Imperative? Or did that move here too?)
