The whole story looks like it's been voted down to -2. The low contrast line needs to be drawn somewhere.

Seriously. I'm tired of this. Does anyone know of a Greasemonkey script that can turn all low contrast into black?

Calcanis just took years away from my eyes with that color.

Not that I am against giving people a second chance (and hey, abused youth and all), but to explain it by saying we are all criminals anyway so it is no biggie doesn't really raise my level of trust.

Ok, that was completely unjustified. How did he turn it into "linkbait"? He has stopped blogging except for the occasional post which he deems enough to re-post to his blog. It seemed like a very insightful entry showing compassion and understanding for others -- something your comment was not.
