I like it. (Because I had written the exact same thing myself and only refrained from posting it because curi had tipped my fairly sensitive ‘troll’ meter which invokes my personal injunction against feeding with replies.)
This website has such high standards that I would have felt totally out of line if I’d offered a frank opinion on the credibility/crankiness of our visitor.
But I guess what’s awesome about the karma system is that it removes any need to ‘descend to the personal level’. No need to drive people away with mockery or insults.
