Quick Notes to the Inquirer

A few thoughts on things noted in the Inquirer:

1) As long as Pennsylvania has two congressional representatives with the same last name (Patrick Murphy, Tim Murphy), please use at least first initials when listing voting records. Tim Murphy may not be in the immediate reading area but I still think it is confusing to see just "Murphy" on the list. First names are used in the list of the first bill in the column but on subsequent bills only last names are used.

2) Please turn on the comments function for Dan Rubin's Blinq blog. I know he isn't posting there regularly at present but it would be a nice place to respond to his printed columns.
