					<description><![CDATA[The took the words right out of my digital mouth Sir - bravo! Round of applause! Encore!!  I had this discussion with a rep from Canada Tourism recently and said that bloggers (and general readers) are getting annoyed with the same voices all the time and that if popularity breeds popularity, how will we ever discover new people, places or voices?
I totally agree with this rant Talon - thank you for writing it!]]></description>
