@Roundtrip @cdegroot This is much the same as the way Michel de Montaigne wrote his famous essays in 16th century France: to try out his thoughts, from the French word essayer, "to try". Thus was born the literary form of the essay, much to the chagrin of secondary school students everywhere. But he was the ur-blogger, and is one of my heroes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michel_de_Montaigne
