Retitling Two Postings

I woke up this morning thinking I should try retitling two recent postings.  This is an experiment.  I put a good deal of thought into the two postings.  I had expected them to generate a fair number of hits and comments.  They haven’t.  So we’ll see if tweaking the titles makes any difference.  I like to think I’m a passable, if pedestrian, writer, but I’m terrible at thinking up attention-getting titles. 

(No, it’s not a controlled experiment, but hey, we do the best we can ….)

New title:  Taking the Gospel of John with a Large Grain of Salt
Old title:  Why I Take the Fourth Gospel with a Large Grain of Salt.

New title:  Admit It: Life Is Indeed Getting Better
Old title:  Who’s Really Want to Live 100 Years Ago?
