"It has been said that man is a rational animal. All my life I have been searching for evidence which could support this."
--Bertrand Russell
"The enemies of freedom have always charged its defenders with subversion. And
nearly always they have succeeded in persuading the guileless and well-meaning."
--Karl Popper

A blog should...

A blog should be a resource.

Pulling the best ideas--from the web... or just your head--and posting them in a way that helps bring more information and meaning to a wider audience. This should be the goal.
