"One of the great things about writing for the web is that you get to contradict yourself, and both your initial statement and contradiction remain available forever for people to see and laugh at you. My standard defense is that things change, and in our current world, change is happening faster than ever. Failing that, I fall back on the Whitman defense: “I contradict myself? Very well then I contradict myself. I am large, I contain multitudes."
