This is an important entry, why no comments?

Yesterday's entry, "Will the Federal Government muck up the WMATA Board of Directors?," has no comments but it raises a very important issue.

Now, I always tease Elise of Frozen Tropics that while I envy the number of responses she gets to entries, I don't envy the fact that many of them aren't all that interesting and that people don't seem to learn and grow in terms of their insights as they continue to read a blog over time. (The same goes for DCist.)

I know the way that I write is pretty "authoritative" and seemingly doesn't invite comment, but I do encourage and appreciate comments. I learn a lot from the comments and from the articles and emails that people send to me as well as from the occasional meetings and subsequent friendships-collegial relationships that have developed.

This is something that needs to be discussed...
