I try to look at most posted URLs, but I don't invariably comment on them, if for no other reason than the one Henry Adams caught in his telling phrase: "next to good humor, silence is best." I've had some solid feedback--both positive and negative--on my photos from Luggers--most often by people who are otherwise lurkers, but I wouldn't expect that merely saying, "yo, dudes, check out my images" places any especial burden or obligation on folks who'd rather vapor on about political correctness or the liberal conspiracy to suppress truth in the media. BTW, I looked at your friend's photos.
