re: #356 iceweasel

Absolutely true. But look what’s happening. Traffic here is going up. That’s because LGF is one of the few (if not the only) sane place(s) on the centre or right. The moronsphere is in total meltdown mode and has been for months.

And people are noticing. Not only are the sane independents, moderates, centrists, and right coming here— people on the left have been noticing too. Dave Weigel at the Washington Independent (I LOVE him) did a great piece on LGF and the break with VB and the shrieking harpy. Someone at the Daily Beast did a piece on how Charles was one of the few willing to call out Glenn Beck.
And the science blogs have noted for a long time that LGF was reporting on the creationists and taking an uncompromising pro-science stance.

I think there is a wide swath of the middle that is starving for a principled venue they can agree with. They’re finding that in LGF, and they’re coming back for more. There are a number of registered Lizards as of late that are very bright and well reasoned. I think it’s because of the audience LGF is now gaining from a reputation for sanity bridging a number of divides.

Keep up the great work, Charles.
