You may not have many people posting anymore, but there sure is a lot of focus on beer and buskers these days. Such pieces remain up for days, even weeks, with not one posted comment. Why?

Actually, with the exception of this week, I'm posting about a third of my typical output of Busk Breaks. This is mostly owing to crappy weather for street performances in the last few months. The last week, however, has been outstanding for buskers, and for Busk Break.
The beer coverage, I'd guess, is because two large breweries have been scouting the area, and the economic impact of this is truly newsworthy.
Although it's generally a little slower in winter, there has been plenty of other news -- just look at Blogwire. Also, much of the in-depth reporting has been in the "In Print" section rather than the blogs.
