The Blogsphere is a little less interesting today.

Andrew at Bound by Gravity has decided to pack it in.

Andrew was one of those rare people of any political persuasion: he argued logically and passionately for his beliefs and for CPC policy but was willing to come to a consensus, find common ground and even admit when he was wrong or mistaken.

Andrew and Bound By Gravity were the model that all bloggers - Dipper, Liberals and Blogging Tories alike - should strive to be like. His intelligence, fairness and and good nature will be missed.

I hope at the very least he continues to comment.

And as we both live in Ottawa, he has an open invitation for a coffee or a lunch anytime he's downtown. And I'm being selfish in this - I'm gonna miss debating him at BBG so I want to do it in person.

Good luck Andrew. You will be missed.

Hat tip to Treehugger over at Stageleft, who feels the same way.
