Well, I like your rambles so I wouldn't want to do anything to have you feel restricted.
I don't know if I agree on the "lack of formality" ideal. Yes, LJ is less formal than the New York Times or Writer's Digest. However, the content of a post lends a certain formality to it, in my mind. Basically, I would treat the first post as I would a resource linked off of SFF.net to a personal page or even reprinted article: That it is the author's personal opinion and experience. Maybe I'm just weird. I respect the desire to want to be perfectly clear that this is the opinion of one (well informed) woman.
I guess my thing is that LJ isn't always up and may die, taking this post with it. Small concern, I know, but there. If all the posts were rejoined into one long post on SLF with a huge: THIS IS JUST AN OPINION disclaimer, I'd feel safer that the info would be around.
