Also, you might think about using the import option in WordPress to import all of your old Blogger post into your site. I have used that process for some of my friends sites and it works great.

Just before I read your defense of Berry, I was musing on the irony of a book I was reading in the library all about the pitfalls—and even the inherent “empire ethos” toward domination and mastery—that characterizes the modern statistical and scientific modes of organizing data. (The author, on a side note, used a really really neat coinage to describe this ideologically-pregnant outlook as “panopticism”. What a juicy word.) This book, of course, was card catalogued and embedded in an immensely sophistocated dewey-decimal system.

And Berry would give me a break on this one. After all, he’s spent the last 30 years writing essays for readers who are completely detached from his particular Kentucky-farmer context. His publishers just have to kill a whole lot of trees to make it happen. I merely click an innocent-looking button marked “Publish”.

By the way, don’t you think Wendell Berry would shame you for blogging at all, not to mention for using his quote on the top? Just kidding, sort of.
