I guess I should address the detractors earlier in the thread.

If there is a problem with talking up my articles upon their release and providing a link here, I'll stop.  What say the mods?

I'm sorry to offend Homepin with my Canadian "Americanisms".  If I were perfect, I'd be writing professionally.  I'm not perfect...so I'm resigned to writing about pinball on a blog at 100 views a day.  I'll take the comment as constructive criticism, although I feel it was more snarky than constructive.

To those with positive feedback...again, thanks...it really means a lot.
