A Poll: Should Mike stop blogging on Kokonut Pundit?
Note: If you're going to vote "Yes!!" at least have the cojones to explain why instead of being an anonymous coward.
I've been blogging a long time and enjoyed every minute of my blogging. I know I've contributed my generous share to the deaf and hard of hearing communities, and even the Deaf community with my invaluable contributions on a variety of important subjects and issues. Opinions do matter here whether you like it or not. I'm not shy about what I write here and ask the hard questions at times when others do not dare touch it. I speak with my mind, literally so, on occasion. And I'm sure my actions produced some shocking results to those whose own sensibilities are, well, rather sensitive and not used to the idea of seeing deaf/hh people talking and not sign. Really, it's all about diversity if people haven't gotten a clue yet.
As a matter of my own curiosity, should I continue with my blogging on my Kokonut Pundit blog? Why or why not? If you answered this poll please write down why you selected "yes" or "no." Don't be shy.
Have a great day!

Keep blogging on...
Thank you, K.M.
Note to all, if you are going to vote "Yes!!" then at least have the cojones to explain why instead of being an anonymous prick.
Yes! Keep on blogging.
You blog about a lot of things. If they're opinions, you tell it like it is. If they're something factual, you provide links or point to some cites. You encourage diversity. You ask questions that others are afraid to. Oh yeah, keep on bloggin'!
uh oh! I clicked on the wrong button!! I read it real quick, I thought it said Yes, keep on blogging! duh. you'll have to take one off the "yes" vote off and add one to the "no" vote from the final tally.
No worry, Candy. I'll keep that one in mind when the time comes.
It's amazing that people actually voted 'yes' that I should stop blogging. And for what reason? Selfish reasons for one. Secondly, they don't believe in freedom of expression and speech and demand that I stop blogging. And thirdly, the truth hurts and that is what some don't like to acknowledge.
I hope those people who voted that I stop blogging never come into power who undoubtedly would try and deprive people of their right to free expression and speech. Shame on them!
Oh, no! You should not stop blogging.
You are like Yang (or Yin, it does not matter which one) that must exist to counterbalance Yin (or Yang). If you stop, Yang will diminish or disappear and Yin will overpower the blogsphere. That is bad.
Please keep blogging on.

JPR,
Heh. Remember, I am a representative of Gallaudet University because I graduated there. That's the thing people will never take away from me. I'm just as valid as the next Gallaudet University alumnus. I'm also a representative of the John Tracy Clinic as well with my mother's help that is.
An irritating thing, eh wot?
Ah, diversity! People need to learn to live with that concept. Shan't be a Sneetch now can we?
I vote undecided. I think the question that you raised from your curiosity "should I continue with my blogging on my Kokonut Pundit blog? Why or why not?" as much as I enjoy reading your blog, and although you have stimulated my curiosity, I feel that the decision on continuing to blog even with weighing in the "why or why not" is your choice.
Margarita, and rightfully so. It *is* my decision and choice on blogging. But it's the utter idiocy seeing that some people still do not understand their own selfishness and cowardice when they vote that I should stop blogging. And why? Those who voted that I should stop blogging are a bunch of cowards who can't even muster enough balls of their own to come in here with their names in tow and say why I should stop blogging.
In other words, Margarita, they're a bunch of effin hypocrites.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
I said "yes," because I don't like blogspot and would like for you to go blog on wordpress. :)
Yup, I read the question with a sharp eye and clicked "no". :-)
finlake,
Heh.
I thought about that a few years ago and decided not to. I'm quite used to the Blogger format and design and know what to expect from it.
smooth, finlake, smooth!
Nowhere did it ask about blog platform.
Either you want MIKE to keep on BLOGGING or you DON'T!!!!
There's nothing between the lines, dude!!
;o)
i'm a lurker.. a fellow DV blogger.. don't always agree but always enjoy reading you. ...interesting..thought provoking.
I voted "no". Mike, please keep on blogging....
Keep on blogging, Mike! :)
There ain't any good blogger in the deaf/hoh world who are good, smart, and straightforward as you are.
Thanks, Rob!
