One last word on "pseudonyms"...

"Joe Carter" writes in this post,

Does anyone else find it ironic that pseudonymous bloggers like “Atrios” and “Mumon” criticize Gannon/Guckert for using a pseudonym?

Actually, Joe, "Mumon" is not a pseudonym. It's my Buddhist name, received after taking the precepts.

I don't actually find it ironic that you'd level a false accusation against me.

But while I'm at it, I am rather well known in my profession- or at least better known than many folks, and the content of this blog is sedulously separate from my professional life.

I do that to maintain a professional ethic. I can explain the concept to you sometime...
Just so you know...
