Posted by: Keith at January 25, 2004 01:39 PMI enjoy seeing comments from all these people (and I wish Zizka would reup a blog so I could read it regularly) but I have to go with Isbell here.
Posted by: julia at January 25, 2004 01:52 PMSince I got a vote and a mention, I'll go for Isbell.
I am now posting at Seeing the Forest under the name of John Emerson. (Click my name). Ma Zizka told me the family was upset with the notoriety I was bringing.

Posted by: sharon at January 25, 2004 09:58 PMuh, conrad is not a commentator, he is a deconstructor, 90% of his "comments" are longer than the posts, and some are an order of magnitude longer!
so...i vote zizka, a genuine commentor.
as for conrad, i suggest everyone set a date to blogburst "conrad barwa get a blog!"
Posted by: razib at January 25, 2004 10:13 PMp.s. i have offered conrad my services in setting up a movable type blog, or any type of blog, that offer still stands....
i will also offer some of my bandwidth in a form of a subdomain if he chooses to take me up-but since i doubt he would want to do that (those of you who read my blog know why)-i will offer to host conrad's blog with a domain he purchases under my own account (my webhosting package allows me to add domains).
ok, that's all, i'll never bug conrad about getting a blog after this, i feel i've done as much as i can for the good of the blogosphere....
Posted by: razib at January 25, 2004 10:16 PMAnother tough call! One vote for Zizka - although Wott has the best teats...

Posted by: poop ruiz at January 26, 2004 01:34 AMTom's right, WooT has the best boobies in the blogosphere--tho maybe I'm just saying that because he shows them to me.
Gotta vote for Isbell though.
