However, on this occasion I thought I’d share with you what’s happening at the other end of the M11.<BR/><BR/>http://barkingside21.blogspot.com/2007/01/comment-on-comments.htmlBarkingside 21https://www.blogger.com/profile/05115211284179569480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30598467.post-69120566664801047032007-04-12T14:53:00.000+00:002007-04-12T14:53:00.000+00:00I think it's perfectly fine to say things online t...<I>I think it's perfectly fine to say things online that one wouldn't say in person.

The third can be in the public interest.<BR/><BR/>I think it's perfectly fine to say things online that one wouldn't say in person. Many people adopt slightly different personas online.<BR/><BR/>I often don't mind anonymous comments.<BR/><BR/>So I disagree with about half of this code.peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01772849039547798229noreply@blogger.com
