It has become a wild ride that's for sure. Look at it this way......
You, my FRiend, have now become a part of FReeper History. LOL
This thread might just become a rival to the famous "undead thread".
In fact, I submit that you should contact Jim or the mods and ask to have the title of your thread changed. Maybe something like the Great Evolution Thread or something like that. I'll leave that up to you.
Just think of it........
Blackirish: The FReeper who posted an article from NRO and kicked off the Great Evolution Debate!
You'll be both cheered and reviled. Like it or not you're now a hero or villain depending on the point of view.
You are now a legend of all FReeperdom!
Please carry your elevated status in accordance with the dignity proper to your newly found fame here at FR.

It would have been, as you had assumed, but the crazies hijacked the thread; sadly.
