"@bassiiabc: From my readings (through "At All Costs" in case there's another one out) Harringtong has always been a great fleet tactician, but there's been no evidence of her strategic ability. She has done brilliant things with the forces she's commanded, but those have been limited to individual/a few system-wide tactical engagements. Harrington (unlike, say, White Haven/Caparelli) hasn't been charged with orchestrating a major campaign. @MISS MERCY STREET: I tend to agree, there's a difference between fleet level tactics and strategy. By that measure Ender, Mazor Rackham and many others should be off the list."

I understand NBC not counting viewers on BitTorrent, but I watched all of season 2 pretty religiously on Wednesday nights on Hulu -- so they got some advertising from me -- so they ought to be giving some consideration to that audience."

Chatteringclass commented on Yes We Can: Wonkette Goes Solo

"I for one embrace the new changes -- I've been worried about the lack of ads on Wonkette for some time. In fact, it was Denton's obnoxious comments about treating ones base salary as an "advance" against page-view driven "bonuses" that led to me semi-boycotting (i.e."

"For what it's worth (not much IMO) here's Lavine's response: Dear Medill Faculty Colleague, On the front page of today's Chicago Tribune (and pasted below) you will find a story about me and two letters I wrote a year ago to our alumni in our magazine, Medill. My summary of this incident is that I commend Daily Northwestern columnist David Spett for raising the issue of unnamed sources."
