The presentation of this apology to blog readers is so smug it’s vomit inducing. But do not imagine that I do not admire his skill with words, and my personal admiration for him is positively Shakepearian in it's poetry; like that of Titania for Oberon. But when he launched the strong voice from his chest, and words came driving on the air as thick and fast as winter snowflakes, then, as Odysseus, he could have no mortal rival as an orator! Sadly I do not have the beauty of Helen of Troy but, it seems, all of the effect.

With bloglines they disappear once you have clicked on them and read them but with google reader they stay there in my list. I have even told some bloggers that I read about this. One lady I know does it regularly. She has second thoughts and then deletes. She was unaware and still does it anyway. As long as she realizes that it's could be still out there.
