In the other thread there is a bunch of people saying that what Harper did was wrong and no one saying that he was right. The information has been posted and it has been stated that everyone posting agrees with the original poster or has no opinion. Why would that thread get legs, there doesn't appear to be anything left to say.
That's a fair point. In hindsight, my argument was that there were more critical posts (and more critical posters) in this thread than in the Harper thread. However, choosing to use total jumber of posts as the measure of that was pretty clumsy.

Thanks a lot for ruining my pithy little post, jerk. ;-)
