The inestimable Mr. Beettam, having upon further reflection determined
that the only winning move is not to play, or something of that nature, has advised all and sundry that Blog War is not for him.
Thus endeth the Great Blog
War of 2013, in a state of status quo ante bellum, which is a fancy-pants way
of saying "dammit, now all the work of motivating me to update this thing is
going to be on me again". Thanks a lot for foiling my plan to outsource my
motivation to you, Greg.
Well, in fact, I've been feeling pretty on top of the motivating-myself aspect of blogging lately. What I was really looking forward to in an unfolding Blog War
was not only having a partly externalized motivation to actually post here more
regularly (and on a broader variety of subjects), but also the idea that as posts volleyed back and forth, inevitably we'd end up responding to not only the fact of one another's posts,
but also the content -- and an interesting discussion might then emerge.
So, to
that end, I'm going to put this out there: If anyone is interested in some form
of at least vaguely-organized blog-based discussion, let's set something up. It doesn't need to be a Blog! War!!!
It could be anything. It could be a Blogstravaganza!
I don't know exactly what a Blogstravaganza would be, but then, I
didn't know what I thought a Blog War was either, until I started typing it, so
I'm sure we can figure something out.

It's nice to see you writing again, Stephen. I had given up on this blog for a while.
