A word from the boss

Not him. Him.

John Robinson, the N&R's editor, wants y'all to know about a new rule:

We've had some good discussions about anonymity, pen names, civil discussion and defamation on this site and on Allen's. After reading, talking and thinking some more about it, we've decided to require you to enter a name and e-mail address to post a comment on our blogs. It doesn't address everything, but it's a start.

That doesn't affect any of this blog's regulars (and you know who you are), who always post with their names and e-mail addresses, and for that I thank you.

And the rest of you lurkers ... please leave a comment or two. We won't be too hard on you even if you're a Jimmie Johnson fan. ;)

Jimmy Johnson impersonation? Is that what you want?

OK, "well I don't know how the wreck started, I think he came down on me."

Or, "no, I didn't run over him, however I do believe he let up going into the turn."

Thanks for the clampdown. It's certainly working extraordinarly well.

To the anonymous poster known as Ed's Log: We're open to suggestions.

For the record, I think you're the first anonymous poster (that is, the first with a fake e-mail address) we've had here in Spotterville. Too bad we don't give away prizes. ;)
