    Toni,

    That’s great News!!!

    Especially when both these blogs are hosted at WordPress (VIP or otherwise) and not a standalone website, backed by a Media House.

    Just goes to show the people power amongst WordPress readers.

    “Read and pass it on for others to read”, maybe the ultimate mantra, that helped this deal through.
