Posted by Nicholas at September 8, 2006 12:09 AMSadly, I'm willing to bet a fairly hefty sum of money that almost none of the [. . .] bloggers who linked to it originally will link to my attempts to rectify their misunderstanding. Because after all the point of blogging is not to have an interesting discussion; it is to make fun of people who don't agree with us, in the company of like-minded companions who will reinforce our conviction that other opinions are risible. But we'll know, won't we, dear reader. And the important thing, of course, is that we all agree . . .

resources are also localized and unevenly distributed - so too in that respect also are Blog resources, connections, trackbacks, links, and friendships...and few idf any retractions.The assumption seems to be that the ones who read a correction/retraction are not the same group of people who read the original post to which the correction/retraction applies . . . not that that actually excuses the lack of same, of course.
