I hope you don't mind if I post a link to this in my LJ--to boost the signal for other cave-dwellers who may read there and be alerted.

I am afraid I am not on Twitter. I will start following the news in the Guardian. If there are any decent bloggers besides yourself you can recommend, feel free to post links.

Thank you for all you do!

Keep eating those pub burgers! You need your strength!!

Please do boost the signal, thank you!

Daily Kos has great coverage from a lot of bloggers.

Do you have to have an account to follow stuff on Twitter? I had no idea.

I'll try to voice post as possible. I'm on my way out now.

I agreed to do Facebook because of people I love who only share stuff there, but for the sake of my sanity I have to draw the line at "Tweetyville."
