Blogging just makes the lack of social politeness obvious. Posting a photo of something in a public event is one thing, or commenting on what people say in public spaces. Classroom comments are more problematic. But personal comments... I hope I never post references to them without permission. Barry's a public figure, almost, and it is almost possible to say that he, like other public figures get any privacy any more. Poor barry. I hope that that never happens to me.
