#1 I gather Aay Pee is on the "watch" list.

Would a good rule of thumb be that if you aren't sure of a source, to modify the header and include link only, and "Let Mod sort them out"?

#3 I'm now blocking all the know WrongHaven sites with BlockSite add-on and a HOSTS file on my computer.
My brain trust(son & daughter) got me up to speed on how to accomplish this.
I too, want to do everything possible to make sure their hit traffic falls to near zero.
A relative works for the State of Minnesota in a capacity that looks to reduce exposure to the State.
I got him up to speed on these bastards.
He thinks he will be able to block all WrongHaven clients from being accessed from all of the States computers.
Ain't karma a b!tch.

#4 My brain trust(son & daughter) got me up to speed on how to accomplish this.

I'm going to have to find a brain trust of my own, Mikey. I managed to download BlockSite, but despite good instructions the last time we discussed this -- a few weeks ago -- I haven't figured out how to do the HOSTS file part. :-(

The entire state of Minnesota? Goodness. The Instapundit has repeatedly commented that it's not wise to fight with bloggers... in the long term.
