I thought I'd go snooping over on the dark side of the Missouri Blogworld to see if the folks at the Springfield News-Leecher have a point about that "put your name on your blog posts or else [1]" stuff.  Here's what I found: 

MissouriPulse:  The front page looks pretty much like the John-Jon show.  All the front page articles are written by John Hancock or Jonathon Prouty.  (Hey, wait a minute...doesn't Jon work for John Hancock and Associates [2]?) Ok, so let me revise this.  John and his paid toady.

The Source:  No bylines.  I guess Jeff Roe writes all that stuff himself. So much for finding more people who post their names.

Meanwhile, back home at FiredUp, as I write this, I see six different writers:  Howard Beale, Thomas Charles, Jeff Mazur, DemCat, Jefferson Thomas, and yours truly.

Oh, and by the way...did anyone notice that that op-ed piece critical of pseudonyms didn't have a byline?

Hrrrumph..Res ipsa loquitur and all that other "the thing speaks for itself" stuff.
