Probably because everyone else is writing something else.  As of now, this page exists simply so I can post a comment at &lt;a href="http://poorworm.blogspot.com" title="Go to poorworm"&gt;a friend's site&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I had hoped this would be a quick process, but alas I had to register and create a new blog, and in the process find a new way to identify myself.  I spent over a half hour trying to find the most clever blog title, but all of my ideas were already taken.  I finally decided &lt;a href="http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=speculative" title="What is the meaning of this?"&gt;purely speculative&lt;/a&gt; would warn a hypothetical visitor to read my musings with a critical eye, and not assign much authority to my posts.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As of now, I at least feel I can take this in any direction and postpone defining that new identity.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10403318-110670963064903642?l=purelyspeculative.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://purelyspeculative.blogspot.com/feeds/110670963064903642/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10403318&amp;postID=110670963064903642' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10403318/posts/default/110670963064903642'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10403318/posts/default/110670963064903642'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://purelyspeculative.blogspot.com/2005/01/searching-for-identity.html' title='Searching for an Identity'/><author><name>elmiller</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01990572094716530040</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry></feed>
