Trudy, can you go back and post some organizational material in the first post in the series (i.e., something like "in this series, we'll examine the current state of the women's abuse industry, how it came to be, who the players are, what it should look like, what can be done) and maybe have a sentence at the beginning of each post putting that post in context of the longer essay?
I see where the posts are related, but not really how they flow from one to another. Really reads like a cut up rant at the moment, but I think it can be improved dramatically with a little organization.
Jody, the easiest way would be to understand what the blog-format is, and simply read part 1, then part 2, then part 3, then part 4, etc. in that sequence. It's nicely arranged for you right at the bottom of each post. This is pretty standard blog-format, and should be no more difficult to grasp than the fact that Japanese books read right-to-left rather than left-to-right.
This is how blogs work. Start with her first article. The chain at the bottom helps. It's the best feature by far of Powerblogs.

Commenting on Dean's World is a privilege, not a right. Dean is your host, you are his guest, and you should behave in that fashion. Dean is not your babysitter, nor is he your punching bag. Please remember this. In general, you are free to disagree with anyone on any subject you wish, but abusive behavior will not be tolerated.
Of course we all lose our tempers now and then. Dean freely admits to being imperfect in this regard, which is why regulars to this establishment will generally be cut more slack than people who we don't know very well.
Still: behave like an adult, or go find somewhere else to play. Thanks.
