Reader, Be Not Discouraged . . .

to find the post you read yesterday revised today. I am compulsive reviser, I admit it. I can revise a 900-word piece 40 or 50 times. It's like polishing a rock. Discretely, you ask if there might be more productive ways for a civic media advocate to spend his time. Point taken. But sometimes I hold the rock up to the sunlight and see it shining and out of nowhere up pops this feeling that the polishing was all worthwhile. And besides, it's fun. Most of the time.
