Obviously the frequency of posting is down, and for my part, will remain that way indefinitely. The combination of work and family has consumed my time, and the blog is a lot of things... but in my world it is a hobby that loses to everything else.
I do intend to upgrade the blog comments in the near future, and thought I'd solicit an opinion.
1) Revert to traditional blogger comments?
2) 3rd Party comment system?
I'm leaning #2, but am open to opinions why the default blogger system may be better. There will be registration involved, I am tired of having to moderate comments by the kids who think this blog is a High School playground, and quite frankly, I'm tired of the comments that can do nothing but add a political statement on why the President is trying to destroy America.
People fail to realize the exactly same "This President hates America" nonsense was the same nonsense I had to put up with when we had the last President. Sometimes people have different priorities than you politically, and when that happens, the internet is full of blogs willing to entertain your political frustration.... so go post on one of those blogs.
I have had quite a bit of time to catch up on my reading during this down time though. If you haven't seen the CNAS paper on China (PDF), it is worth reading. Also, I don't know where all the good materials went on the new Naval War College website, but hopefully that stuff will come back. In the meantime, check out the Somalia paper that is available over there.
Also, the US Naval Institute has redone their website, check it out if you haven't, and finally check out this good read from the Army War College: How Operational Art Devoured Strategy (PDF).
