Friday's "quota" rewind reminded me of
this post, which stands out for an unexpected occurrence - activity in the comments section! This was more important back in 2006 (my first experience with a blog... RIP to HYDB) when the comments section was a daily first pitch to debate the Sox-Yankees rivalry, but TOA lives in a muted reality - the comments, all of which I've since deleted, were among a handful that have ever appeared on the site.
I knew the comments were junk because they claimed to be impressed with "the layout for your weblog", which is laughable. It was also amusing that the comment was on that particular post because I'd written something I thought was far better
on the preceding day (though I'd say "Quota Proofreading" isn't half-bad). TOA traffic is jumping lately, so I'll likely turn off comments to help protect my time and space.
