James Kushiner of Mere Comments, a man who hasn’t done much in the way of wrong on his blog, said the worst thing that he has done is not include enough qualifiers in his posts.

However, as Kushiner put it, readers may not understand the context in which a post is written so qualifiers are important. Wise words from a thoughtful man, indeed.
