Just because you supposedly put your "name" to a post doesn't make it any more valid or worthy than any other post on here. As I have said without Anon posts this blog wouldn't exist. This was proven by an article Bernie did which you could only respond to by using a system in which you had to be signed in to respond. There were 3 total responses.
