The way he (consciously or unconsciously) promotes himself, the way he writes, the arguments he may helm when he presents his point of view, the (again, apparent and perhaps unconscious) dichotomy that seems to exist between <em>his</em> particular views and other people's, particular to that of fellow bloggers, his lack of apparent approachability (and to a point, humanity) and an apparent sensitivity to either humorous or serious criticism. I've often been told that I should stand up for this guy, because, you know, he's a blogger, and his rights are my rights. But the longer he hangs around the more I get the impression that the rights he's fighting for are <em>his</em> rights to speak and think, not mine. <strong>Peter: We should stand up for someone because he is right, not because he is in the same clique as us. But then again, what is right to one may be wrong for someone else.</strong> I don’t particularly like Jeff.

Looks like you are still blogging and cool keep up the good writing. Glad that all is well with you and that your spirit is high.
