There may be a little easter egg around there.<BR/><BR/>So, Elan--assuming you check back here, yes, I would guess we should assume Mac noticed the original thread. Go see. Thanks for the compliment, Mac, to Elan and some weirdo who calls himself wintermuskox z4 or something. 8^)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4147219.post-49940061097341950162007-12-15T00:57:00.000-06:002007-12-15T00:57:00.000-06:00Ha!

I doubt it--I've noticed a tendency in general at blogs that when comments are belatedly posted after a few days, and the particular post involved has been superseded by a bunch of newer posts, it's pretty rare that either commenters or blog owners go back to earlier posts to put in subsidiary remarks. <BR/><BR/>Mac's pretty good at posting follow-up comments, compared to most, but when a post "ages" for awhile, and a certain number of comments have been made in relation to the older posts, the tendency is not to go back too far over time, as newer posts and comments "at the top of the queue" are still "active," and garner the most current attention. <BR/><BR/>Hell, if someone were to try to respond to all the belated comments on older posts, or just check for same, they be spending considerable time doing just that, which is usually not worth the effort. <BR/><BR/>While I suspect blog-owners are notified in some manner of new or additional comments coming in to older posts, unless there's some compelling reason to add their further comments, most will not. <BR/><BR/>So I guess my little riff will remain buried, which is perfectly OK. In fact, I would bet you may not even see this comment or reply, in turn, due to the situation I just outlined above. <BR/><BR/>It will remain our goofy little "secret." Heh! 8^)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4147219.post-5926695854302475442007-12-13T07:10:00.000-06:002007-12-13T07:10:00.000-06:00Hi Bob,Your extension on the narrative is a scream...Hi Bob,<BR/>Your extension on the narrative is a scream!
