Cowen's Charter for This Blog

As I mentioned, I'm responding to this paragraph in Tyler Cowen's column (also in his Marginal Revolution blog).

So I have a second proposal and one you may find less pleasant, perhaps precisely because it may turn out to be effective. Keep a diary, write a blog, or set up a separate and anonymous Twitter account. And through that medium, write occasional material in support of views you don’t agree with. Try to make them sound as persuasive as possible. If need be, to keep your own sense of internal balance, write a dialogue between opposing views, just as Plato and David Hume did in some of their very best philosophical works.
You don’t have to do this a lot, but make the best case for the opposing point of view at least once a month. If you don’t trust the anonymity of your chosen medium, write out your entries and then destroy or delete them.

Not sure how closely I'll follow his directions.  I've been thinking about it for a couple weeks.I suspect I'll end up writing on different subjects here than at Faceless Bureaucrat, perhaps ones where I'm ambivalent.  Unlike the other blog, where I feel an obligation to blog (almost) every day, here I won't.
