I'm not questioning the point of the blog.  I though that was obvious 
from my question but I guess not.
What I was questioning was why the prison authorities would allow 
someone to maintain such a blog using the prison systems computers.
The fact that nothing particularly damning has been posted could partly 
explain why they allow it.

I missed the startlingly obvious fact that he is on work release so he 
posts from work, not from prison.
How I missed something that obvious is beyond me.
Early senility?
