Bran, I'm not sure you understood my question (which was, in fact, rhetorical). I was referring to the prospect of losing readers (or, more to the point, commenters) for expressing an opinion in an unrelated setting, such as somebody's blog. Granted, it's as likely to be the reader's loss as yours, but the point remains. To rephrase the question, what are we getting in return for taking that risk, if nobody's opinion on the topic at hand is being altered?
