One of the things I enjoy most about this blog is the comments and discussion that take place. To help promote this, I wanted to mention that comments can be made anonymously. While it's true that the comment form requires that a name and email address be entered, it does not have to be YOUR name and email addresss. Thus, an entry with the name "me" and the email address "[email protected]" will work fine. Hopefully this will encourage people whose employers may frown upon expressing personal views to join the discussion.
Of course, the ability to post anonymous comments could be abused, so please act appropriately. For example, do not post a comment as "Pascal Lamy" unless you actually are Pascal Lamy (either the WTO DG or some other Pascal Lamy).
