Doug,
I think that you need to check out Drupal again; it has changed massively since D6 came out and is light years ahead of D5 in terms of usability and flexibility. Yes, there is always a balance between flexibility and complexity, but D6 is great in terms of allowing the user (or developer) to determine how far to either side they want to go. It certainly is not tough or a nightmare, as long as you have a modicum of technology related skills. Absolutely no need to delve into any coding at all, unless you *really* want to create custom modules.

It hasnt been voted as the best CMS for nothing

I do find your comments about the community slightly strange...perhaps not as engaging I would have liked, but certainly never hostile.

I'm on my third replacement pair. Vibe duos produce really good sound (particularly good bass response), but after a while one of the ear buds stops working. Then you have to send them in for replacement. After my year warranty is up I'll switch to another manufacturer when this third pair breaks.

Good job Doug for dropping some weight. It's so easy to put on the pounds and so hard to get them off.

However, I am concerned that you would call someone out like this in a public post.

This person Mike contacted you, in private, to bring something up and because it "startled" you, that makes it worthy of a post?

What other private emails do you receive and turn into posts? maybe you need a privacy policy on your site?

One of your comments above from Patrick Farrell says "falling prey to trolls that aren’t even posting comments" but I don't see how a private email is considered being a troll.

Obviously Mike brought up a valid point and you addressed it within this post.

I do agree it's a little misleading having an older picture as your header. I also agree with why you did it though.

However, what if someone wants to hire you for a talk or presentation and they think they're getting the guy from your header, then when you show up and look different?

At any rate, good job on dropping weight. Doing daily walks and drinking a lot of water will help.

Also, portion control too. I know it's hard but you seem like a dedicated person. You can do it. Your readers have faith in you.
