I've had a few emails lately that need sharing First up is Jeff from Pennsylvania...
Hey Mark, more science pieces, please! The United States is on the cutting edge of scientific research in the world and I think you should showcase some of the latest inventions.
You are absolutely right, Jeff. I will endeavor to do so.
Marie from Utah...
How about some more posts about women's issues? You used to write about more of them back when you blog first started.
Did I? I guess it's hard for me to write on some of those subjects because I'm not a woman but I do see the need to touch on those topics more often. Most of my friends are women and they do say that I am all dude with the heart and soul of a woman!
Owen from Minnesota (hey, that's my hometown!),
My biggest complaint about your site is that you talk too much about politics. I have your blog on my RSS and I don't even bother if it's a political post. A big part of the reason for that are the comments. You should really moderate them and lay down some rules. The people that post here all the time are personally very insulting to you. That would not be allowed on a respectable site.
Well, this isn't a respectable site so if you have a problem with it, don't read it. As I have said many times, their comments serve a purpose, the core of which is a fantastic illustration of what conservatives are all about these days. By letting them say whatever they want, it's much easier to win elections:) Speaking of my commenters...
Suzie from Oregon...
Hey Mark, do you really use people's real names and states? Not My Name has a point about privacy. Don't use my real name if you post this. Just call me Suzie from Oregon.
I think you answered your own question, Suzie. And half the time I can't really tell what someone's name is from their email so I make one up and add the state based on my site tracking stats.
That's all for Mailbag this time, folks. Drop me a line in the form to the right of this post if you want to have your voice heard in a way other than comments.

Made up names, made up states, likely made up content, too. Who'd know? Who'd complain? Who would they complain to?
Imagine that - the voices in his head send him e-mail too!
The people that post here all the time are personally very insulting to you.
Yep, this sounds exactly like Mark in that it ignores the actual evidence and arguments presented. But if it makes Mark angry, then it's not just wrong, it's "insulting"—no matter how accurate or gently worded the argument is.
