So that I can point out on the spot when you <a href="http://indiauncut.blogspot.com/2005/01/search-for-causes.html" rel="nofollow">quote Vinod Mehta</a> out of context. Or fight back when you suggest that the government should regulate <a href="http://middlestage.blogspot.com/2004/12/why-ceo-pay-continues-to-rise-and-rise.html" rel="nofollow">how companies run themselves</a>.

And all this while I thought you wanted comments enabled so you could write nice things about my posts. Bummer. Hey, that was a rhetorical question, you’re not supposed to answer those.

I send you my comments by email. Now if you're still gonna clamp donw on comments, maybe you can do what Andrew Sullivan does: post an "emails recived" note once in a while.

Maybe I'll open a sub-blog for my letters. Do note that I disabled comments not to stop reasonable guys like you and Madman from making reasonable comments, as I believe that adds a lot of value, but to stop the kind of abuse I'd regularly get for my <a href="http://www.cricinfo.com/23yards" rel="nofollow">Cricinfo blog</a>. Wasn't this post about Pradyuman? Why have we hijacked it? Sorry, PM. Cunning plan. Maybe I’ll open a sub-blog for my letters.

I'll set you up with some web space and a proper blogging tool that will help you run multiple blogs on the same site. Then I'll show you how to switch on comment moderation to keep the arseholes at bay. :) (Has Yazad told you about my technical superskills? ;) Get your own domain, Amit.

I'll stick with Blogger, I think, for a variety of reasons, but I will call on your legendary skills for advice on a couple of things that I need to figure out, if I may. Soon.

I've deliberately not opted on for comments in order to avoid slanderous stuff getting in on Mediaah! Since I have a host of journos from media organisations as readers (this morning's count: 8186), the last thing I'd want is pointless personal crusades getting on the site. Hence the moderated comments, even though I know that it goes against the spirit of the Net. Cheers! Thanks folks for your comments.
