"Says the guy whose daughter's blog gets free plugs from KS's blog." - Brian Profit, chesstalk

I have no idea why the thread is closed, but I'll post my response here instead:

Please do not get me involved in this argument. The Stockhausen incident has already caused tension in one family, and further conflict and personal attacks only seem to divide us (chess players) further. Personally, I am trying my best to promote chess in Canada, and I don't like seeing references to me or my blog in such a distasteful manner. What I post is my sole discretion, and I don't decide whether or not Kevin Spraggett posts my material on his blog (I don't even have contact with him). In fact, I have never judged my blog based on its "free plugs", but instead, on all the work I have put into it, and the people it may have helped. If you don't like it, or think I have some unfair advantage, then just don't read it.
