Curious as to why I got modded down to hell. It's an interesting aspect of the story that nobody's covering - the fact that while newsworthy, traditional media took forever to address it.

if you had used the same tone in your first comment that you are using here, you likely wouldn't have been voted down.

now that you've restated it in a calm way, i can see that you might have a point. but your first comment reads like a flame. your own noise drowned out your signal.

A good point and an excellent reason to quit commenting pre-coffee.

Lesson learned.
