It warms the cockles...

Recent posts here, reminded me of these ones. To all the naysayers and ballyhooers (and I stress I AM NOT comparing these two situations to eachother).... But still.. Metafilter has been a source of comfort and communication in trying times... Also, it's funny to see how restrained us Internets people are as far as jumping the gun and placing blame (unless it's due.. usually). This post is a testament to how much we care, and the reason and varied viewpoints the informed many can share amongst ourselves. Way to go Meta... The blue is home to many....

Dear Debaser626,

I applaud the sentiment behind this post. But it's not for the front page of MetaFilter. Maybe try MetaTalk.

Yours,

Erm. Was the first Oolong related post really on September 10, 2001? For some reason this surprises me.
