I have started to be leary of these types of things as promising because the true costs are seldom disclosed. This one is the most interesting I have seen in a while.

Posts on Public New Stories
Sorry it has been so long.
I am going to rant a bit here. Who are these people who comment on news stories, especially political ones? I read the Fox News political pages occasionally and today I read a story speculating about who would be the vice presidential candidates. Then I noticed that there were 10 pages of comments. So were these long diatribes about why Romney or Clinton would be wrong, or who they would vote for if they were the VP, etc. My question is: Why do these people waste their time commenting? Do they really think we care that much? Or what about the guy who posts "I Agree"? Why take up bandwidth and storage with that? Are they in some contest about who can comment on the most stories? Maybe I am walking a thin line here, since here I am commenting about their comments, but at least you are reading this because you know me in some way. Maybe there are people I don't know out there reading this, if so, I'm sorry. Well anyway. To all you people I don't know out there who aren't reading this. Stop posting dumb stuff!
