Why is this the top thread? I'm being serious here... I honestly don't understand how this got all the way up to the top where as others of much greater worth (IMHO) sit below...

I agree totally. I'd delete it if it would take it from the top instead of leaving the discussion there behind a curious "deleted".

I've scrolled down and up-voted as many of those more valuable comments as I could. I encourage everyone who reads this far to go and do the same.

As I said, I thought this would be a "one voice among many" kind of post, not become the lightning-rod of this thread. Parent is right. Go read the better stuff.

Because most people think violent attacks on high-profile innocents is more meaningful than, say, the merits of blogging without an audience.
