I'm just starting project hCCh: "hocus Community Come home". hocus hasn't been able to reach the community, so I'm trying to bring the community to him. Basically I'm going to try to increase traffic to his blog and/or site without offering the readers my prejudice. The thinking is that fresh readers will bring fresh comments and new interactions with hocus (which have been quite entertaining in the past). And the most fun part is that it is what hocus thinks he wants, and at least the readers will be voluntarily--if unknowingly--entering the fray. I'm not sure how easy or hard this will be, and it will give me some practical experience in bringing traffic to web sites which may help me in a more practical way in the future.

I'm also noticing that the old REHP forums--now rebranded Rob Bennett's Best of Hocomania Discussion Forum--is continuing to drop posts. I have made efforts to link to original material whenever I refer to hocus' writings here or elsewhere so readers can verify the original and judge it in context, but in my occasional checks of material I am finding that posts linked from here are steadily disappearing from the forum. The instance I just stumbled upon is the stealing of the term "bloviating" from M*; that thread has lost the early posts to it. In the recent pasts I have browsed my quotes section so I could link the original quote but found it missing.
