I hope she can take some time out, engage in some introspection, or just think about something else entirely. Anyway, it's what I would do if I had been so passionate and prolix about an important subject, and been so badly wrong.

You, on the other hand, I've notice over the past decade slipped from the drawer of eurotrib local correspondence with your interest in EP and national poll results and scant notice. Perhaps, too, without concern for known and unknown eurotrib readers whose presence appears only in comments.
NTTAWWT.
Only to return with an extremely peculiar, topical belligerence and faintly patronizing instructions, disguised as "what I want this site to be" is, I must say, is a daring strategy to exhort anti- PUTIN commenters to subscribe to eurotrib. Be a role model. Write that diary entry you want the site to be! Sparking an invasion UKAUS columnist to decisively quash independence of EU thought.

I just don't have the time. But I've seen excellent sites turned to crud because people have avoided the issues that are killing them. Somewhat similar to marriage.
And I do care about about ET contributors. It is rightly acknowledged that people of faith have no monopoly of virtue - Queen Elizabeth II
I miss the sense of community this site used to have (and in fact, I don't know you, you don't know me. Sad.) It was killed off by Facecrack or whatever, many years ago. But these days, no sentient being would admit to being on that thing, so perhaps we could try to get it back?

I have been quite open and shared personal information on occasion. Not that it matters, how did you establish I'm a she and not a he or other perhaps? Has been covered many moons ago when the Booman Tribune and Eurotrib was a community. Did a number of Welcome Wagon diaries at the earlier place. A very enjoyable and pleasant time Spring 2005 and forward. Many acquaintances from both blogs and set up personal meetings in Amsterdam and The Hague. Even participated in a ET meeting in Amsterdam.
Have been a prolific blogger for so many years and returned to ET when the place was desolate and a diary now and then and far in between. It's more lively today, that is a big win. 'Sapere aude'
No doubt that is why I felt I had the right to offer some advice. It was an extreme step, but you have not responded, other than very obliquely, to any of my attempts at dialogue.
I am glad that you have fond memories of friendlier times (I have only been to one ET meet-up, Paris in the spring six or seven years ago, and I cherish the memory). So perhaps we can restart something? It is rightly acknowledged that people of faith have no monopoly of virtue - Queen Elizabeth II
