Every year at this time, it seems, we're realizing again that as you get older, you forget birthdays. It occurred to us only over this past weekend that that this blog's "birthday" was looming and we almost let it slip by without notice. It hardly seems like sixteen years ago that we posted here for the first time.
In law blog years, that's quite a while.
Because doing this in a vacuum would not be worthwhile, we'd like to recognize those who send us items, who make comments, who give us feedback, who gently prod with suggestions, and who simply read and subscribe. You guys make the efforts that go into this thing all worth it. You are why we keep it going: this blog has allowed us to connect with many of you over the years all over the country and even internationally, an opportunity we'd otherwise probably not have had.
We'd also like to hail our fellow law bloggers who, like us, make the time to share thoughts about the legal issues of the day. Although you're not quite "Real Men [and Women] of Genius," today we salute you, Mr. and Ms. Law Blog Blogging Bloggers:
