  • I like it. But I wonder why you don't reply to comments more often on your blog/Facebook/Twitter… especially given this post.

  • Er, good point. It's probably because I spend so much time answering tons and tons of email. I don't always see the Twitter questions (they get pushed down out of sight in my feed very quickly). As for Facebook, I have no excuse.

  • We actually take pride at my station to make sure everyone who asks a question or writes us gets an answer. It IS a lot of work, but in the long run…I think it's worth it even if they don't like the answer. By the way, No we will no play Slipknot at 10am.

  • Believe it or not, Alan I think you post too much on this blog. There's very little time before every post goes off the front page and you never, or rarely post in the comments. I think this is the first time I've ever read a reply. Way too much of a good thing.
    I'm sure I'll get some flaming from this but your blog might as well be called the Daily Blargh just by the shear volume that comes out. Hard to interact with that.
