Taxonomy upgrade extras:
We've had discussions of this before. Here's a new recommendation:
If anyone posts in a comment on a blog, forum or other comment referring to another earlier comment, blog or forum in the same thread something to the effect: "That's not what I meant." accompanied by an explanation of what the poster thinks they (themself) actually meant -- no one should insist in a comment in effect that: "Well, yes but that was what you said." with expansions, lists and refutations.
There's no end to that sort of thing. A miscommunication has happened, as such things will, time to move on and expand on the new information rather than dwell on the miscommunication.
BTW, "themself" is a word, apparently. :) I spotted it being used in just the way I used it above in no less than the London Times last week. It's sort of elegantly awful, innit? :)
Hugs,

The Times!
If you're going to read a London newspaper, at least read a decent one, either the Guardian or the Independent. The first has more of a sense of humour and a better standard of misprint. Bonzi likes the crossword, helps him to sleep apparently. Cats! don't you just love 'em?

The Mirror is more fun!
Kinda like the Inquirer, but published daily. Page 3 is always interesting.
