Jealous Ones Still Envy

The current president of the American Library Association is apparently none too fond of blogs:

"Blog People (or their subclass who are interested in computers and the glorification of information) have a fanatical belief in the transforming power of digitization and a consequent horror of, and contempt for, heretics who do not share that belief... Given the quality of the writing in the blogs I have seen, I doubt that many of the Blog People are in the habit of sustained reading of complex texts. It is entirely possible that their intellectual needs are met by an accumulation of random facts and paragraphs."

I'd be laughing if it didn't hit so close to home.....

ooh, new blog format in effect!
i have a comment about it (hence, why im commenting). i think the linky text should not be that basic internet blue. it doesnt go with your more earth-toned blog. im not sure what color id suggest since now im on the comments page. maybe black? or dark green?
anyone else?

Uhm, that'd be my fault there, Kat. Sorry. I had actually moved the blog to this format, but hadn't updated the link because I was fixing it. Let me see if I can rescue your comment.
