I'm not sure why I am doing this - well yes I am - because credit should go where credit is due.

You only have to read blogs posted here on a daily basis for a few days to see that there's a lot of less than quality stuff to sort through. Some of it is mine.

I've been trying to get to know the regular posters at JU a little better lately because I'm on leave, and I have the time. Having done so, I've seen some pretty good writers and some fairly funny people, and AS I did so, I just happened to notice that I smiled a little bit more every time I read one particular bloggers posts and blogs.

It didn't seem to matter whether he was commenting on someone else's topic or writing his own, it was always well thought out, very clearly written, and non-acerbic. That's a combination I've always had trouble with, and so I admire it.

Here's to you, Ock's JU Readers Choice Award Winner! For whatever it's worth, you have my thumbs up.

Wow, thanks very much, Ock. I realize you and I don't always agree, and the praise means even more because of it. I think some would differ on the acerbic part, lol, but hey acerbic is in the eye of the beholder, I guess. I find you a lot more tolerant than I am.

I read your blog as well (The Planarity game has become a curse around here because of you, lol...) , and your opinion carries all the more weight coming from someone I can respect as a blogger. Thanks again, very much.

Great choice! Baker is always a pleasure to read and discuss with.

As I wrote, I somehow knew you'd say that, but allow yourself the slack. You seem pretty even-keeled to me.

Hit the level jump button and type in 50. When you see what level 50 looks like, you'll happily never play again

It's kinda funny, as I read your description, the only person it could have been was Baker.  I give you a thumbs up, too, Baker.

i wish there was a way prevent important stuff from sinking so quickly into the bloggian depths and be buried under tons of sediment (eons from now it may be the fuel of the future but..) cuz i coulda very easily missed this as well as any opportunity to chime in with my own agreement.

I didn't participate in the voting, but Bakerstreet deserves the award as much as anyone (and more than most). Hoo~AH, Bakerstreet!!!
