Hi Cernig,yes please keep the news going.I always read them although sometimes I don't have time to post a comment.
I think it is important to TDG as a whole to have a well balanced program and this helps a lot.
Your comments are very interesting too, so a combination of both is good.
Actually reading what other people think about things is always good for you I always believe.
It can sometimes shock you out of your complacency when you go with one idea, like me with Yetis.
On TDG itself I would like more about UFOs but that's just me.I always like a good UFO story.
Thanks

Yeah, if you can keep up with it, more power to ya! I tried to keep up with a weekly news brief, but fell short.

Please keep up with the news briefs. All linked articles are important to someone. I just started reading your blog today after you posted on Simianbrain.
I appreciate someone who gathers the parts into something resembling a whole and linking the sources is the best way to maintain objectivity adn credibility. You can have opinions, and I want to read those, but also present the source so I can read it myself. This adds validity to your opinions even if I don't agree with them.
To me that is the best way to have civil dialog and God knows we need more of that in America today.
Do an article if you prefer. But keep the links. I guess I would like to see both if you have the time.
