Economics and similar, for the sleep-deprived
A subtle change has been made to the comments links, so they no longer pop up. Does this in any way help with the problem about comments not appearing on permalinked posts, readers?
Update: seemingly not
Update: Oh yeah!

A parable, in place of a proper post because I am busy
In business circles, particularly among a certain kind of aggressive American businessman (or consultant, or banker, or politician, they're fairly interchangeable), there is a favourite proverb about a pig:
"When you have bacon and eggs for breakfast, you've got your breakfast from a chicken and a pig. The difference between them is that the chicken is 'involved' but the pig is committed"
which is of course, true. It should also be noted, however, that when you go out to get your next few breakfasts over the course of the rest of the month, the chicken will have laid another egg every day, but the pig will eventually run out of bacon.
Stay lucky guys, and never read your own marketing material.
