We are concerned about a recent drift towards vitriol in the RSN Reader comments section. There is a fine line between moderation and censorship. No one likes a harsh or confrontational forum atmosphere. At the same time everyone wants to be able to express themselves freely. We'll start by encouraging good judgment. If that doesn't work we'll have to ramp up the moderation.
General guidelines: Avoid personal attacks on other forum members; Avoid remarks that are ethnically derogatory; Do not advocate violence, or any illegal activity.
Remember that making the world better begins with responsible action.

Positive side is free non-structured information flow - better than censorship.
Unreadable!
Harriet, So is life.
Well, not unreadable, but maybe not worth reading. I mean, you aren't going to take any quotes from the court papers seriously, are you? And my lawyer's training doesn't see any hard facts on either side. I mean, if you paid me, I could be happy representing any of the litigants. What it is, after you filter out the lawyers and the author's bias, is just the story of a bunch of spoiled intelligent rich kids who all got an idea at the same time and then squabbled over who was going to get the credit (and the $) for it. Claire was catty in the way s/he psychoanalyzed Mark; the real proof will be what happens next, what Mark does with his money and power. If he's what he says he is, at least he will be more like a Buffett than a Koch.....
"Apparently 65% of us have lied about reading the great works of literature."

Even if we can read, most of us are actively illiterate ... much to our own detriment, allowing us to be easily fooled by ... whoever entertains us the best.
Besides, geniuses only need each other.
How can you possibly think he will become another Warren Buffet?
