There is something fundamentally offensive about somebody using the circulation and advertising potential of SI to score "hits" on his business site and to directly benefit financially.

I suppose that is why his output consists mainly of cut and pasting articles. This does not interfere with his primary purpose and benefit.

Oh well...maybe he is paying for his advertising. I just haven't found that disclosure anywhere.

From "through the eyes of a child" :-)

"Sometimes people want to like (or at least not be disgusted by) the posters they are posting to, or on the same thread with. This thread represents that for me."

This implies that disliking someone is sufficient criteria for having people banned from a thread! Imagine! How could an adult mind entertain such nonsense! After 5 people had been polled--everybody on (any) thread would be banned!

Now, listen up! If I don't like somebody on a thread I will stamp my foot until mommy bans them! I'm special! What I like is all that matters!
