Anonymous commenters - please add a signature (doesn't have to be your real name) on each post of yours. Anne O'Namus, Norm D. Ploom, Angry from Kent, Demosthenes, or even your real initials, it doesn't matter.
Commenters are expected to be polite to each other, but the same standard doesn't apply to comments regarding me.
Australian commenters are very very strongly advised to publish anonymously. Sydney alone has more defamation actions than the entire USA and UK. Nearly double that of the UK in fact.
As Google does not reliably inform me that a comment has been posted, and I have no control over first publication, I assert that all comments are innocently disseminated under the NSW DEFAMATION ACT 2005 - SECT 32 and similar acts.
Not quite Tunguska, but who knows... there are lots of big rocks out there.
ReplyDeleteHeh. I was particularly impressed by one of the ones the BBC was showing, where the camera is pointed down at a parking lot -- and a giant blaze of light moves across the cars, trailed by a dark shadow of the building on which the camera sits.
ReplyDeleteI actually stopped by to alert you to this remarkably awesome news in the Boston Globe. The comments are not so awesome, alas. And maybe adults will get these rights too, someday: http://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2013/02/17/transgender/FHmjIUlSZo0LCMy02xF97M/story.html
