					<description><![CDATA[In the recent SE Connecticut edu-blogging drought (a.k.a. &lt;em&gt;my&lt;/em&gt; lack of writing), I&#039;ve found myself missing simply the process of explicitly writing out my ideas. Even though I don&#039;t get the multiple comments and great conversations on my posts, I&#039;ve found simply going through the process of planning and editing a post clarifies ideas that otherwise are just banging somewhat aimlessly in my skull.

As for uniqueness, I totally own the first 50+ or so results from Googling &quot;ben wildeboer.&quot; ;-) (Except for that one other Ben Wildeboer from Swindon, UK who goes by the moniker Bum Lover. Oh well).]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I guess I&#039;m lucky to have an unusual last name. There is one other Susan VanHattum in the world. (Don&#039;t know if she also goes by Sue.) I guess she doesn&#039;t have an online presence. 

So I&#039;m stuck taking responsibility for all the crazy things I might say.  ;&#062;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This is by the Kate Nowak I sincerely hope no one thinks is me:

&lt;blockquote&gt;Of course the idea of creating our own reality is nothing new. Philosophers have been telling us for eons that our thoughts are powerful; that what we think, we become. And now, thanks to quantum physics, science agrees.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Maybe I should IMAGINE myself with a better PageRank.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I&#039;m creeping up on my doppelgÃ¤ngers. Only have the graphic designer (jasondyer.com) left to topple, but he&#039;s a tough nut to crack.

Smooshed the advertising exec a long time ago, even though I presume his salary is quadruple mine.]]></description>
