Rush rants on DU

How did I miss this?

We should make it a weekly event. "DU Day."

Here was the ghost writer's {fire_eye} suggestion.

I think a DUmped Club thread where we post the swan song posts on FR could be fun.

WELL DONE, Fire_Eye!

The pen is mightier than the sword...and can fit in your purse, back pocket or flight bag.

Why, thank you. This is the first time my dubious talent at deliberate disruption (and getting thrown out/off of public forums) has ever been properly appreciated (or put to unequivocally good use, for that matter), to my recollection. I was particularly to see that my suggested post caused the desired effect of getting the poster thrown off DU within 20 minutes. I would think it would take longer than that just to penetrate the drugged stupor of the DU moderators... so it must have *really* toggled their bits.

I think I'd be cautious about making a habit of this publicly, though... you can absolutely *count* on the single-celled life (?) forms at DU trying to hash up some sort of legal action against the site, Jim Robinson, and anything else they can manage to spell with the help of a spell checker(which admittedly limits their options, but, nonetheless...) if they sense some sort of effort at ongoing disruption being organized on this site.

Now, if such were organized *outside* this site, well... hmmm...

Oh, my... Make that "... particularly gratified to see..."

We need for Rush to make a commitment to do this at least once a month...
