THE BLOG AS LOSS LEADER: For somebody who proclaims himself a free-market capitalist, I must be something of a dumbass. So far today I've scribbled more than a thousand for-free words on this blog. Written in the course of a for-pay project, that many words can run a client around $2,000.

If only I could invoice each and every one of you!

(Sadly, given my desire to be heard, you should each invoice me for your reading time.)
