Also, I wanted to add something I should’ve written after I first read this post:

They should’ve gone all the way to Z by asking Roderick to include an entry on the “Zaxlebax Problem”.

Hmmm…might have to buy it just to look at Stringham’s entry.

Roderick, have you considered using FeedBurner to manage your RSS? I’m an RSS follower, but I don’t want to give up my Google Reader because of RSS glitches.

Yeah, my code has been hacked in various ways and my RSS feeds suffer as a result.

I’ve learned to just come here for blog updates rather than rely on the Google Reader. The links for this site haven’t been update in half a month I think.

Looking through that page of edits was painful–maybe one just can’t go more than three paragraphs without finding something to edit.

Oh, by the way, your RSS feed just coughed up the last week’s worth of entries all at once. I wouldn’t want you to think that we RSS followers were snubbing you.

What’s wrong with Valentyne/Steiner? I’ll take Steiner over American leftists who get their metaphysics from the table scraps of Marx any day!

what did you think of Smith’s entry on Herbert Spencer?

I haven’t read it yet, but I would expect it to be good; George Smith was doing Spencer anti-defamation work long before I was.

Chris Sciabarra is not the right person to write the entries on Nathaniel Branden and Ayn Rand.

He seems like a good choice to me. But who would you suggest?

The omission of Konkin and agorism is a disgrace. I can only hope that Wendy mentioned them in the voluntarism entry.

No, Wendy’s post really is about voluntarism, not about voluntaryism.

I lean more toward the idea that they chose to use American Indian out of respect for the somewhat libertarian spirited American Indian Movement

Hmm, could be. And I hope so. The fact that they also changed my gender-neutral language to men-talk is probably what inclined me to suppose otherwise.
