Mind this before you have your say


Comments on this blog are moderated. These are the three golden rules to follow if you want your comment published here:


- Keep it on topic.


- Keep the language sober. Try some meditation if this is a problem. It works!


- If you don't like what I have to say,"This is bs" won't do. You'll have to come up with some real arguments. 


If it takes some time before your comment appears, it's probably because I'm not online - or your comment went against one or more of the three golden rules.
