Sheesh, people in1997 thought blogs were diaries. Not public ones!
I've had someone threaten to sue me for quoting them and then proceeding to disagree with what they said. He was probably the only visitor to my site at the time too.

Zappa said it too - and better!
"There is more stupidity than hydrogen in the universe, and it has a longer shelf life."

I think that might be why CES has left.
We would never "remove" posts, but will sometimes move clear derails, but even that is pretty rare...
I suspect CES left because he couldn't accept a warning during a spat with rEv...
That's cute. I remember a huge shitfest that was at least partially brought on because he didn't get one that he probably should have.
What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

Interesting that he gives a citation for the Zappa version but just
asserts that Ellison said it first with no reference.
Zappa is known to have said very similar things on many occasions (both on tape and in writing.) I would like to see evidence that Harlan said it
first (not that I am saying that he didn't - just that the jury is still out - "somebody said so on teh interwebz" is not evidence.)

I have no idea but when I last looked it made this place look like Downtown Beijing and that was several months ago.
