Really everyone needs a soapbox every now and then. A place they can go and ramble on about topics important to them and, perhaps just by chance, important to other people as well. Maybe you'll read this, maybe you won't. Really it doesn't matter. This is the tree that falls in the forest and still makes a sound even if nobody's around. Of course, I do expect the occasional visit by a particular "Simple Farmer" at some point in time...it's a long story.
