In the ten years since my first academic publication my academic writings have been cited a total of 91 times… a modest, though respectable figure. In the five days since I set up my two blogs, I have had well over 10,000 views, including more than 5,000 views of my Vietnamese site, Xin lỗi Ông…TODAY ALONE… Academics is better than most occupations. But at moments like these one recalls its profound and shocking stupidity….
On the other hand, there are plenty of nonsense sites on the net that draw in millions…
