1. I won’t tolerate abusive comments on this blog.  I will delete such comments ASAP and will permanently ban people posting such comments.  I will not revise this view on the basis of claims of my own allegedly past bad behaviour. Life is too short to waste on such discussants.  Critical comments are welcome – unless you have been banned – but rudeness to me or other participants in online discussion is something not catered for here.

If you wish to stage an ongoing complaint about someone else in the blogosphere then do it elsewhere – not here.  It may take me 24 hours but with probability one I will delete your efforts and ban you permanently from my blog.  I am not interested in discussing this policy.

2. Unfortunately a  few (very useful and informative) comments went into my spam queue because they contained too many hyperlinks. WordPress protects sites against postings that have many hyperlinks because these are often spam. I have relaxed this constraint and hope that works.  If your comment does not appear and it does not fall into the category of comments discussed in 1. above please email me and I will try to deal with the situation.

Many thanks.
