TROLL PATROL. Dealing with an anonymous blog troll.

I've attracted one. Because of anonymity pronoun gender is uncertain. I make a random choice. She is an ultrarightwing champion, disliking good grammar, probably married and divorced at least once, possibly a substance abuser.

I have tried to be civil and responsive when commenting in response to the troll.

I would welcome her even more cheerfully if she would identify herself.

I do moderate comments, because of troll presence, and have scuttled one or two items that were really offensive. Moderately offensive comments from the troll, I have allowed through.

I presume others may read the site. I am not posting solely for a troll.

It could be worse.
