<DIV>The blog template is the point I was making in the first place, where if
you do *not* want the is_home or is_front_page events to execute, that is the
only way to bypass that; which makes having a blog.php useful.</DIV>

<DIV> </DIV>No, I mean, there is nothing in the code that I can find for
"blog.php" at all. It's not mentioned in the Template Hierarchy, there's nothing
in the template.php core file that mentions it. So, what exactly is this
"blog.php" to which you refer?
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>As far as I know, if you're displaying the results of the main posts query,
then you're doing it on front-page.php, home.php, or index.php. There's no way
to display it using any other template file.</DIV>
