Sometimes, the only version of an article I see is the second post. If it wasn’t for the second post, I would have missed it altogether.
Also, often the comments go in a completely different direction on the second post providing unique insights missing from the first one.
So, what’s the problem with a second post?
I believe it's against the rules.
And probably for good reason. Imagine if there were many people who posted dupes. There were many dupes to scroll through.
Although I’ve been on and off FR all day, I just moments ago saw this article for the first time over at American Thinker
