Ignoring the audience
Back in the old days I used to keep a hit counter on this blog. I decided to get rid of it on the grounds that having a counter made it hard not to be a navel gazing hit whore. All and all, it was a good move.
One drawback, though, is that when I get email notifications of comments, the notifications don't indicate which post the comment is attached to. Without a tracking mechanism I'm reduced to context clues.

They send them to jail.
Actually, a famous satirical piece was once written which proposes, in ridicule, the moral equivalent of that which you endorse: solve the problem of overpopulation by killing the poor and making them into dogfood.
Any ideas?
