A blog probably reflects the mind of the blogger who runs it, and I imagine many readers of the Expanse read it to know my thinking. But I post plenty of ideas at other people's blogs too, so I've decided I'll start grouping some up now and then.
Here's the first batch, a short list following the format subject, link, blog post and blog.

I recommend reading the other comments too, and the post itself of course - as well as browsing the blog as a whole - in case you also feel it's worth following and commenting.
