<description>Mike - Thanks for the comment. The email was anonymous from a brand new email address with yahoo. I don&#039;t mind criticism (I actually welcome it) but at least have the courtesy to let me know who&#039;s criticizing me. Thanks for the compliment too.</description>

<description>Eric, It was probably anonymous too - those kind of personal attacks usually are. Take it for what is worth - someone just trying to get some attention. If they by chance did have some valid observations it is okay to disagree. Conversations where everyone is in complete agreement are, well, boring and unnecessary. Keep up the good work.

<description>Thanks Raven. I had been planning on ditching the suit for a while but couldn&#039;t find a good picture to replace it. My wife snapped a good picture of me over the weekend so I thought it was the perfect time to change it...thankfully it was &#039;before&#039; the pompous comment but perhaps the suit led to the comment :)</description>

<description>Hey Eric - sounds like you fired some one up and caused a big enough ripple to get a, uhm, passionate email. At least you got &quot;a&quot; reaction, albiet not the kind we bloggers crave. Love the new look of your site, by the way. Did you ditch the suit and go polo to look less pompose?</description>
