Long Term Plans for this Blog

So I want to establish some written ideas of what I am going to use this blog for.  I would appreciate some comments to see how this blog would be the most helpful to those that choose to follow me.

1.  I began this blog so that rather than telling 20 - 30 people the exact same thing at different points, I can type it once, and then if people want to respond, they can do it through this avenue.

2.  I have been researching different aspects of the War on Drugs that I do not feel has been brought to the appropriate light of the drug policy activist community, and, in my opinion, may end up speeding up the ending of prohibition.  In due time, I will be releasing a series of essays regarding these.

3.  Many people internal to SSDP want to follow what's going on with NIU SSDP, and this way those people can keep updated on what is going on.  I do want to make one thing clear though:  I am not speaking on behalf of NIU SSDP.  I will share information about NIU SSDP, and may reflect on different aspects of NIU SSDP, but in no way, shape or form do I represent the views of NIU SSDP.  Also, NIU SSDP does not represent my views; being the founder allowed me to share my views and help establish a basis of the SSDP ideals, but the nature of the way the organization runs at this point will allow it to grow and expand without my controlling it.  In no way, shape or form at this point, do I have any control over this organization, other than sharing ideas as founder and a member of the NIU SSDP Board of Directors.

4.  When my brain is "overflowing" (as I humorously like to call it), I can write a blog and share my thoughts instead of let them boil over and inevitably cause me additional stress.  In essence, this blog is a stress reliever.  Woo.

I think that about covers it.  Please feel free to share your ideas as well!

Peace and love
