Is it redundant to have both "Kith and Kin" and "Community" in the blog name? I was wondering this yesterday. If you designate that blog is for both kith and kin, who else is included in "community"? Doesn't K&K cover everyone who would post? I guess what seems to me is that a kind of community is implied in the words kith &/or kin.
Or maybe "community" is modifying "blog" instead of "stokes". As in, it's a community blog for stokes kith and kin?
Also, I learned a new word today (from an article in First Things, where else? And why aren't you reading it by now?): meliorate.
Upon looking it up in my handy-dandy Concise OED I discovered that it means the same thing as: ameliorate. Kind of like the way
