Bloglines had a little surprise waiting for me this morning:

BOFH not available in feeds

Thanks for your interest in the Bastard Operator from Hell. Simon Travaglia, the author of BOFH, has asked us to remove links to his articles from our RSS feeds. We will not restore the BOFH RSS feeds without his permission.
Huh? You what? I keep - or rather kept - up to date with the antics of the BOFH (a regular feature of The Register, a UK tech news site) through the feed (the feed is not full text - it just lets me know when a new post is up). The only reasons I can think of that Simon Travaglia has decided to remove the BOFH from feeds are:

1. He's not very smart.
2. He hates people who read what he writes.
3. He's making a stand - refusing to allow the BOFH in feeds unless the full posts/articles are allowed.

I'd love to know which it is! (And if anyone can think of any reasons I might be missing for this mysterious action, feel free to share!)
