I agree. Either this is a real and regrettable situation or it is a pretty sick joke. Either way, it's not funny.

>>If it is not a joke, this thread is - by far - the worst example of humanity on display in the entire SI history, as far as I can tell.

Hardly, since the commentary to which you refer was submitted in the context of it being a joke.

>>If it is a joke, we'll all forget it and move on. If it is not a joke, the way we view each other and our selves will never be the same again.

You are making the presumption that the humorous comments were made in spite of what you perceive to be a potentially legitimate situation. Since we understand the paradigm from which all comments were derived, both the serious and the humorous, why would anyone change their view of others, regardless of the (il)legitimacy of the issue?
