It's your choice to question. And I see that on Tom's blog, you did pose
some questions. However, I didn't originally see those questions posed here
for discussion, I only saw your admittedly quick response of, "that's shallow"
:) I suppose I take all blogs, professional or otherwise, for what they are --
someones personal thoughts and ramblings scribbled on paper.
Personally, sometimes my thoughts are deep and sometimes they're vague.
I've chosen to spare the world from my ramblings ;) (at least in the
blogosphere -- you do have to put up with them here and a on few other lists
:)
