Just a note. If you choose to follow me but (a) have not put up your own avatar (think twitter bots), or (b) do not post your own thoughts but only boost those of others, I am very unlikely to return the favor, Earn your follows be they from me or anyone else. Follow those who interest you but don't expect them to follow in return, rejoice when they do.
Will it ever end?
