rellimz's Comments

I remember Neatorama posting this story back in 2008. I had just had become a father for the first time and was overwhelmed by the love I had for my new son. I couldn't comprehend how someone could treat a child so inhumanely. That article really made an impression, I can remember weeping as I read. We have no control over what really moves us, and this story back in 2008 has stuck with me ever since and I think about Danielle often. Thanks for linking this update, I'm all weepy again, but at least I know she is doing well.

Thank you,
Dan

I think some of you are missing the point. This position was offered up as an item for a charity auction. The actions of these "Limousine liberals" are being misrepresented by those of you who choose to twist the truth.

Critical thinking is a great tool that everyone should learn. Blind liberal bashing for the sake of bashing is asinine as is conservative bashing.

My mother and father in-law went to China this past fall. My mother in-law had several pictures to show that she was eager to share - local women holding their infants and toddlers over garbage cans doing what they needed to do. The child's pants had a opening, a flap that exposed the bare bottom. As a new parent I'd love to know how in the hell I could teach my 9 month old that trick.

I'm tremendously glad this discussion worked, with all viewpoints being heard equally, and such a fair conclusion. I had my doubts when I first posted that it would make it past the death ray of the Queue-bot. I agree with Johnny Cat, this is win-win. Yay Alex for a great compromise. Thank you.

Dan~rellimz, Neatorama fanboy.

Wow. It's seems I've started something, glad to see the thoughtful discourse here.

@philliposophy, I don't see it as a camp of pros and a camp of haters. I like the idea that Paul and many others have put forward, that the UQ become it's own thing (a la Boingboing Gadgets). A daily roundup could be promoted on the front page with links to the UQ page.

It's a gorgeous sunny day here in Toronto. I'm going outside to play.

That irony wasn't lost on me Akiro. It occurred to me that the folks visiting the UPCOMING QUEUE section would by default be fans of the system and subsequently downvote my post. Glad to see I was wrong.
