Hello Everyone

I just wanted to shoot out a quick note to the readers and give a tip if you decide to respond to a post:

Please read it first. If you do not and respond, you take the risk of making a spectacle of yourself. This is true even if you are just skimming posts.

In internet blogging, it is not uncommon for emotions to rule the day, but I promise you if you argue based solely on passion and not reason (ie with your heart and no head) you're going really risk sounding really silly on here. I know, I've made that mistake before.

Note: Opinions expressed in comments are those of the authors alone and not necessarily those of Daniel Pipes. Original writing only, please. Comments are screened and in some cases edited before posting. Reasoned disagreement is welcome but not comments that are scurrilous, off-topic, commercial, disparaging religions, or otherwise inappropriate. For complete regulations, see the "Guidelines for Reader Comments".
