This piece was originally written with a European audience in mind, though I modified that slightly for Daily Kos. But it's still in the right place here.

Daily Kos reminds me why I got off Usenet, frankly. Big sea. A constant stream of diaries, most of them seem to be repeating campaign spin from one candidate or the other. With predictable comments. I imagine that it is especially crazy due to the election season.

Still, I appreciate that a number of people liked reading the piece.
