Hi Elaine,
The world of blogging is so strange… and one of the strange things is that there are people who spend their time spamming other blogs trying to get others to visit their own blog, all in an effort to drive their number of visitors up. I have my blog set up to require my approval so that everything that appears here is relevant, trustworthy and kind (with the exception of the commercials that wordpress inserts at the end of some posts, which I have no control over).
Thanks for your comments!
Mike
