Gary does not post on FlyerTalk anymore (although he reads it, including this forum, very regularly).
So when he wants to comment on a FlyerTalk thread he has to make it a blog post.
I guess that's a win/win. He comments on the thread (on his blog) and gets a blog post out of it, and he drives traffic to FlyerTalk from his blog.
But if the rest of us want to know what the thought leader thinks about the thoughts that non-thought leaders post on FlyerTalk they have to think about the thought leader and visit the thought leader's blog.
Doesn't seem very thought-leadery.
