I have to admit that the so-called 'teabag' movement in the USA did accelerate its decline, but there were other factors at work too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'd like to think that, once upon a time, &lt;em&gt;Tampon Teabag&lt;/em&gt; was quite an entertaining place, in a disgusting sort of way. Well, I enjoyed it anyway. So thanks to everyone who read, linked, lurked, commented, or contributed (yes, David Duff included). Three editors even had such good taste as to lift posts from it &lt;a href="http://www.lulu.com/product/paperback/youre-not-the-only-one/2997514"&gt;into&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/2005-BLOGGED-BLOGOSPHERE-Tim-Worstall/dp/0954831837"&gt;book&lt;/a&gt;-&lt;a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Blog-Digest-Months-Words-Web/dp/1905548168"&gt;form&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The good news is that I'm not dead. At least I don't think I am. I believe myself still to be around.
