Yes, I'm still here. No, it hasn't been fun. Will try to catch up.

Pretty rough, still, actually. However, I can see from the multiplicity of off-topic, racist and threatening posts that many of you continue to burden me with unnecessary work. This even further delays getting real content work done. For some of you, it's obviously your intention. Others appear merely thoughtless and unteachable. So, for the stupid, the neoNazi and the malevolent, the delete key will still be employed.

Dutchman - can we be sure the racist posts are from 3 pers and not Gov't or SPLC trolls looking to paint SSI as a racist blog site? As of late they are turning up the heat on everyone they consider a danger to them..

Thanks again for everything you do to keep this site running.

There is an odd lack of presence on some of the bigger sites around the net of the long present lefty trolls. Sure, there are still some, but the bots are few where they normally lurk.

I suspect they are instead now targeting smaller sites, like this one, in an attempt to go more to the source. They are showing just how thin their resources are.

Keep your chin up, Mike and know that we understand how much of a burden they put on you and we wait patiently for you to release comments as your time allows. We are not going to be baited into blaming you or stop commenting because it takes longer than five seconds to see them posted.

We got your back Mike and we are loyal beyond their attempts to discourage us from coming day after day to see what musings you come up with next.

They are losing, Mike, and they know it. This too shall pass.
As more and more trolls get nailed like that cat who had 57 twitter accounts, their ability to attack in this way will be curtailed. Just make sure to save the egregious threatening ones....It will make for an interesting piece someday.

Ask them (the racists, trolls, etc) for their email for a personal reply. Then register them for a lifetime supply of gay porn.

I wouldn't be surprised that it was gubmint or SPLC trolls.

Is there someone as you can trust who would be able to help you keep the grease traps clear? Seems like you already have enough thankless jobs; you could probably spare the one. :-)
