Before I begin posting in earnest again, I want to share a thought with you. In the spirit of the season, I've been thinking about granting amnesty for all those who have been coolered for some time. I mean everyone, including those who go back a ways. I don't think there's many in there. Mebbe a half dozen. I've forgotten the wrongs some of them did. They are easier to control on this new blogware. If they misbehave again, they're out of here for good. What do you think? (Huckleberries, of course, would continue to block the one or two who have been banned rather than coolered.)

Question: Should I grant amnesty as a gift to our former blog mates?
