RSS is supposed to INCREASE traffic to a site, not give the traffic away. If a blog is usually interesting, fun, or informative then readers will come, but if they don't like what they read then why bother putting the entire post in an RSS feed?

They are not enabled on my blog at this point because the Radio Userland comment server is no longer available to me, as I let my subscription lapse in anticipation of moving to WordPress... but the migration also requires moving my family's e-mail addresses, and I've been busy. Up to you whether you take me seriously or not. The lack of comments is a bug, not a feature, I freely admit. Cheers. Not against comments.
