Comments?

Some of the comments seen here at this blog have been very good over the years. However, a year or two ago I just got tired of 90% to 95% of the comments not being comments and actually people wanting me to advertise their sex, sex toys, snake oil types of remedies, and other things like this and people propositioning the world so to speak to make money and that isn't what I want my site to be about. However, I was talking to my housekeeper this morning and I realized I still need to show you the good comments and some of the angry ones I receive here because that makes it more of an interaction and more like social media. I had been upset that I had had to cut off comments just because of all the crazy stuff I receive from places like Asia which are really off the wall and often not even in English with European Script.

So, I think I'm going to try to edit comments once again just as a service to my readers. I try to share both comments for and against my site unless they are insane and crazy completely. Being an editor I have to edit myself all the time so I might as well go back to editing comments so I can share the best ones with all of you.

Oddly enough most of the comments were regarding Hoverboards. So, it could be either people interested in Hoverboards or manufacturers of Hoverboards wanting to popularize them. However, many people are concerned about batteries catching fire. But, as batteries become safer likely they will be better devices over time.

Comments?

About a year ago I disabled comments because 90 to 95% of them were strange advertisements for sex or drugs or strange things mostly from Asia somewhere and I just got tired of filtering through them all worldwide to share useful things with you all worldwide. Once in a great while someone would be angry and an equal amount of time someone would be very grateful for this site and the articles and said something like "This blog gives me the strength to go on in my life".  So, this is one of the many reasons I keep blogging to help those that this blog helps worldwide.

I'm going a lot less political than I used to simply because I think we all need to protect ourselves and our families because of the 1930s and 1940s feel to the world like just before World War II. We live in very very strange times and in some ways to be safe we might need to either (Head for the hills and into a cave (with a 6 months to 3 years supply of staples and water), or we might need to change countries (because who knows just how insane or like Hitler Trump is going to make this place (and the world soon).

I never thought the U.S. could ever get a Hitler, but we have one now in Trump.
