Not just with blogs, either. I remember back in high school, we had a group project where we had to argue a position on a specific topic. In a moment of stunning clarity, I spoke up with a brilliant line of reasoning that had everyone amazed. Perfect! Can you repeat that? Nope. I couldn’t remember it all, and nobody else wrote it down as I said it, so that was one argument lost to the ethers. Well, we did reassemble something from what we all remembered I said, but it wasn’t the same.
