I am heartened to find out that I am wrong and there is stuff going on in Brum which I will checking out and commenting on through the klunk medium.

Thanks.

Registration only comments are very tempting but, in my analysis, not worth it in the long term.

Remember registration is defacto in the world of forums – it’s just blogs have a tradition of open comments. If you’re coming from a forum mindset it makes perfect sense. Wrong sense, but sense all the same.
