			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Let&#8217;s face it.  You don&#8217;t read this often anymore, and I don&#8217;t write to it often anymore.  Although I get a feeling that there may have been a causal relationship here.  Hmm.  </p>
<p>For over 6 years now I have been &#8220;blogging&#8221; - oh how I still loathe that word.  Over those years, my writing style has improved dramatically, and my ability to turn my random smattering of thoughts into complete sentences help bring me to a point where I could run and do reasonably well within a political realm.  Even if this journey has not been useful to you, it has to me.</p>
<p>This does not mean I will cease writing - but I suspect the only time one might see one of my articles will be if I guest-post on another weblog (you know, if anyone is looking for that type of contribution).  You are always welcome to follow me on <a href="http://www.twitter.com/kirkschmidt">twitter</a>, although my focus is turning from politics to not-for-profits (and technology behind it).</p>
<blockquote><p>April 11, 2003:<br />
Well, we all knew it had to happen eventually. I&#8217;m too politically and socially opinionated that I really couldn&#8217;t go much longer without having a weblog&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230;Weblogs which break that mould, and to me, are the most interesting, are those that provide forums for discussion and ideas. I hope to establish a knowledge forum and touch upon some of the cooler aspects of our modern society.
</p></blockquote>
<p>&#8230; now for my next trick&#8230;</p>
