What part of this thread is activism? The jumble of colors or the garbled html? Other 'activists' on this site try to post the news using the written word as the focus. If anything, this is less than activism.
Considering that we know there are numerous new posters and lurkers who will be attracted to different threads for different reasons,it is destructive to criticize anyone who puts data, facts and figures together for them to read.
This thread supports our cause irregardless of the graphics and/or colors she may have chosen to post with them.
This thread may not be in the form you care to see.. but someone out there will read it just because it is in the form they DO like to see.
IF anything - trying to turn people away from reading this thread is less than zero activism, IMO it is playing for the other side.
Knock it off.
Nonsense...perhaps MiaT's work ain't yer cup of tea, but FR.com's got plenty of threads out there that I'm sure are. I simply don't see what benefit you derive from trashing her thread...this is an amazing amount of work, and I'm personally in awe of some of the skills MiaT's developed over the years and look forward to new tricks I'm sure she'll learn in the future.

That's been my bailiwick as well, but it doesn't keep me from being impressed by MiaT's creativity. Could it be that you've developed some sense of HTML-envy?! (LOL...just kidding)
