Oh, you did.

Well, to answer you, I read it all and it is a very well thought out and insightful essay. You should read it. Or do you only do the comments section? Another problem with our country that nadin did not mention in the post you feel is just too long and difficult to read but commented on anyway with a reply that said and added absolutely nothing to the conversation.

May I suggest Yahoo!? They have a robust comments section. You will probably get more agreement to your silly insubstantial replies that are meant as insults over there.
