I'm purging inactive members

I must apologize. I've been sick for the last two weeks so activity on The Atheist Blogroll has been limited. I did another 50 blogs this morning. Blogs that are marked "Gone" no longer resolve. "Inactive" blogs have not had a post in the last year or have clearly stated that they are inactive. "Active" blogs have posts in the last year. Here are the results.

Gone = 18

Inactive =19

Latest purge data

I reviewed 25 today and 25 from yesterday for 50 total (I missed a day because of a long work day and illness). Some of the active ones are questionable though. I need a second pair of eyes to make the call.
