She said the strong reactions had not changed her view on anonymity in posts, which she said "allows for more compelling, insider content" because the writers need not fear retribution. Parker said it was "worth considering" a policy that would require those who leave scathing, personal comments on his site to identify themselves. In the meantime, the incident has helped the sites in some ways. Parker said his blog ordinarily received 4,000 to 5,000 hits a day, but last week, it had more than 12,000 a day.

He wouldn't be pleased to know that I'm writing this, which is why I filed it after he left for the weekend. He couldn't stop what he didn't know about; he couldn't give it one of his, "No one cares" or "Boring" feedbacks.

You could pull it back and try to make it better, or you could tell yourself that this time Klayman doesn't know good from bad, then let it go - and then feel as if you'd ignored him or, much worse, let him down.
