prole Posted September 11, 2008 Posted September 11, 2008 What's with the rash of them lately? As they are not subject to the same standards as journalism (and I do recognize this is also fraught with problems) or subject to peer review, they're pretty much worthless. Just so you know (not that you care) I won't be reading any posted here. Quote
ClipStick Posted September 11, 2008 Posted September 11, 2008 This in itself is an OP... And I agree most are total rubbish...on either side of the aisle.. Quote

Just so you know (not that you care) I won't be reading any posted here. Some are pretty good. They are speculation, but oftentimes from people who know something about something. David Brookes comes to mind. He's usually a good, thoughtful read, even if I don't always agree with his assessments. Quote
