Post 146187 by I am the Walrus deleted for the following reason: Heya, if we're gonna have a post about this now and not just wait till April, let's have something with more meat about the actual cases and not just a "and this is a thing that happened/will happened" sort of announcement. -- cortex
We now pronounce you ...
Post 146184 by DrAstroZoom deleted for the following reason: Probably better to make a post about this concurrent to when actual arguments are happening, or barring that put something together with more meaty content/context for the cases than a short news summary. -- cortex

Let's be better
Post 145992 by and they trembled before her fury deleted for the following reason: Hey, this is a topic we've been talked about a whole lot, but if there's something more / different to discuss, it might work better as a larger / more developed post so we don't fall into the trap of just picking at the details of this one particular essay or presentation and fighting endlessly over them. -- taz
