Look out your window when there's no moon.

I think I can see Uranus.

It's hot, we are on vacation, sometimes it is a slow news day, there is no election on...we'll be back. But yes, you are correct, headlines are missing from the discussion.

I just checked the AP headlines on Yahoo and we really do have them all covered. Even U.S. pins wiener-eating hopes on Chestnut and Movie critic Ebert has emergency surgery. Must be a slow news day. Think I'll go and see if the cat needs anything.

I used to love this site as a source for breaking news. As a story developed, you could come here and updates would be posted as new stories/topics. Unfortunately, the duplicate post nazis have ruined this aspect of the site; to see updates to a story, you now have to scroll through thousands of posts to the original story. Personally, I consider my time too valuable to scroll through 3000 posts from the Pajamahdeen in the hopes of finding one update to the original story. It's much easier just to look elsewhere.

It's different now? You mean you don't appreciate the dozens and dozens of endless crevo and WOD threads and the incessant yakking about Ann Coulter?

Posting waxes and wanes with the yearly seasons and the political seasons. As November approaches the posting will pick up.

FR is still the best place to start surfing.

Your perception is correct. Back in '98 when I lurked, this place was like the wild, wild West. Then Jim decided to go along with the idea of Moderators to clean the site up. With that cleanliness came a certain 1950's feel. Some of the old posters migrated to Liberty Post. Others got banned for being too outrageous according to the new rules. The reason it looks oddly sanitized is that the old posters were incredibly competitive about being the first to post the news. Sometimes duplicate threads were a blast, as they went off on different tangents. It was fascinating to watch as people got mean and meaner and then called each other on it. In the end, the most sane and rational won the argument, but not without some nasty posts. Very wild. Incredibly freeing. Much fun. Sadly missed.
