	<description>I am an astronomer, writer, and skeptic. I likes reality the way it is, and I aims to keep it that way. My real name is Phil Plait, and I run the Bad Astronomy blog.</description>

		<description>Hi Phil

...I hope you still keep track of comments on old entries, as there didn&#039;t seem to be anywhere more appropriate to post this ... but, I&#039;ve recently noticed that your RSS feed no longer displays the full article text - just the first paragraph... which makes it a bit of a PITA to keep up with your stuff via an RSS feeder.

Is this an unavoidable consequence of writing for your new paymasters? (which would be understandable - if immensely annoying) ... Or something that can be fixed??</description>

		<description>Sorry but I still prefer the old version / server /BA blog /way you used to have things by far. 

I hate having everything squashed to the far left of screen. &lt;i&gt;
(Even though some here reckon I&#039;m far left myself - which I reckon shows they&#039;re wa-aay too far into the political Wrong wing! ;-) ) &lt;/i&gt; 

I hate the colour and format of this site. (&amp; no it ain&#039;t growing on me, sorry &#039;Discover&#039; people but you need to change your site. You badly need to change your site. In My Humble Opinion Naturally.) 

But mostof all  .. &amp; I&#039;m sur ey&#039;all se this one coming ... : 

Yegods! Please &lt;b&gt; Dr Phil Plait &lt;/b&gt; Please, please, can you let us EDIT here! 

Surely it can&#039;t be that hard to give us all the ability to edit ..? :-(  

Even still &amp; despite all these complaints  - 

&lt;b&gt;Thanks for an awesome blog &lt;/b&gt; 

I&#039;ve still gotta add -you &lt;i&gt; are &lt;/i&gt; &lt;b&gt; my favourite blog! &lt;/b&gt;</description>

		<description>&quot;I still want prev/next buttons at the end of the responses, much quicker than scrolling all the way back to the top…

But I agree that so long as the writing keeps up, we can deal.

It would also be just awesome if they included the little &#039;»&#039; and &#039;«&#039; in the actual hyperlink.  Then I wouldn&#039;t need to scroll anywhere to find them, because  my dumb little browser plug-in would be able to figure out that they are next and back links, and open them with keyboard shortcuts or mouse gestures.</description>

		<description>Phil, in case you&#039;re reading this and wanting feedback, here&#039;s mine:

My only real concern about text-related stuff is that link text is brown and doesn&#039;t stick out enough. Red, orange, or even light blue would be better for link text.

The only other thing I can think of is probably a better way to &quot;link back&quot; to your old site, or even link back to the various portions of it (Pantry, movie reviews, etc.) instead of the generic &quot;oh it is still online&quot; link text...</description>

		<description>The &quot;little two word verifications&quot; and &quot;string of random characters&quot; approach to stopping spam has been busted. There&#039;s code out that can beat &#039;em.</description>
