I agree that this list should continue doing what it has been doing, and doing well in my estimation. As many voices and ideological perspectives as possible need to be heard, somewhere, and there are lots places around the net to accomplish that. But it's unrealistic and unhelpful to expect every list to include every voice, every view, or go silent.
