Commenting rules

I am so grateful that so many folks have been commenting lately.  It is important, however, that I set some ground rules, especially in an environment where (and again, I'm grateful), I regularly get over 100 comments on a single post.

1.  Please show restraint in the number of comments you make in a given day.  Ten would seem to me to be reasonable.

2.  Please stick to the topic of the post.  Endless tangents are not helpful.

3.  No ad hominem attacks or slurs directed at other commenters, please.

4.  Try and keep your comments under 250 words.

5.  No intimation that the wearing of fur, especially chinchilla fur, is acceptable under any circumstances.

Thanks so much.

"4. Try and keep your comments under 250 words."

Well, that leaves me out. When was the last time I managed to write anything under 250 words?

Arrrrgh!
