This might be an idea that could be beneficial for a couple of reasons:

- You might be able to gather a bit of an idea on how many new hits the site is getting, superfluous of relying on Alexa, because of it.

- It could provide a certain degree of feedback on others' thoughts of the tabloid; that is, those who are fairly new to such matters.

- Last but not least, the carnivores here would - hopefully - be a tad kinder to new tabloid recipients.

Just my two pesos...

Er...um...aren't you...um...ya know... skeptical about the tabloid cuz of Miller's hard sell? Just curious as to the change of heart.

-Spengler

No, I haven't changed my thoughts one iota on the aforementioned. Also, it's not my bag, but I wish them well. So, if I come up with an earth-shattering idea, I'll pass it on, Mr. Spengler.

Ah, Shakespeare, A winters Tale, sir! "We all depart in happiness. Despite our terrible mistakes, which are human, we can grow, move on, and deal with the losses life entails, whether those loses are of our own making, or in the random nature of living. The joy is balanced by deep sorrows, and the cost of our actions never forgotten".

Steve B Translation: Fuck you, I'll be a meat eater, thankyou!!! :D

That part was intended for you, as you're always arguing with everyone, sir. :(

I have always thought that it was an inner personality conflict due to my loathsome childhood, sir. In my mid 20's and 30's I surmised an overabundance of testosterone as the problem. Alas, as I have reached middle age and the crankyness does not seem to have abated I can only conclude that I am a first class asshole!

Such is life!

Well, the first part of the equation is acknowledging that the problem even exists. Kudos to you, sir. Being that I have a disposition like a bright, sunny Spring day, perhaps I could give you some pointers. My speciality is turning out-'n-out hostility into a peaceful harmony, where the parties in conflict become as one. They almost turn into a real life John Lennon song or a utopian Leftist slogan, you might say. By adopting these principles, you will learn to be kind to the potentially new adherents of racialism - e.g., your new recipients of your tabloid.

Ha! Wouldn't that be sorta like Chuck Manson taking "pointers" from Hannibal Lector?

Not John Lennon! Pete Seeger's "Turn! Turn! Turn!,"

A time of love, a time of hate
A time of war, a time of peace

I'm feeling so warm and fuzzy all over, Intrepid! You have utterly convinced me of the errors of my ways!

Ohh, Intrepid....can't you be serious for once in your life? You don't want the tabloid to succeed! Your greatest hope and dream is that it fails.

Please don't insult my intelligence, sir! It's beneath you!

No, no. Surely, you're confusing me with someone else. Mayhaps Mr. Momus or Mr. Garrett might be the character you're thinking off. I wish all well, unlike so many others.

Actually, I was thinking of this shi... er, umm, ideologically neutral and peaceful song (I believe its lyrical content to be on par with a random steely-eyed maxim of, say, von Clausewitz):

Imagine there's no heaven,
It's easy if you try,
No hell below us,
Above us only sky,
Imagine all the people
living for today...

Imagine there's no countries,
It isnt hard to do,
Nothing to kill or die for,
No religion too,
Imagine all the people
living life in peace...

Imagine no possesions,
I wonder if you can,
No need for greed or hunger,
A brotherhood of man,
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...

You may say Im a dreamer,
but Im not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
And the world will live as one.

Ohh, Intrepid....can't you be serious for once in your life? You don't want the tabloid to succeed! Your greatest hope and dream is that it fails.

Until you and Mr. Spengler attacked me as if I was an old mumblecrust, I was simply offering an idea that might benefit the tabloid. I can't see how my humble recommendation could be misconstrued so poorly. :mad:
