Show respect for Andy's readership.

Andy Oliver have hundreds of visitors every day to his blog, probably because he writes about interesting things. He would possibly have even more readers if he didn't crap on his readership by not spending the extra few minutes to present his ideas better.
Mr. Incoherence says that Andy Oliver's writing is <a href= "http://www.freeroller.net/page/matsh/20021212#show_respect_for_your_readership">not coherent (scroll down to the bottom of the post), what a crock. Read <a href= "http://freeroller.net/page/acoliver/20021212#my_first_blog_flamewar_or">Andy's response. Here are my two cents. Andy writes in a no-holds-barred blast of the fire-hose style that is great fun to read even if you don't agree with him. If he went back to edit and soften his words, he would lose readers not gain them. There is a place for more formal, pedantic, and boring writing but not at Andy's blog. Perhaps Mr. Incoherence can establish a home for such writing at his place ;-)
Comments:

I don't know about formal or pedantic (okay, I do know that I'm neither - I hope I'm not pedantic), but I think I do boring quite well!

Boring Writing spends a lot of time at my place too Lance. He cleared out my fridge last night. I wish he would leave.
