In reply to the discussion: I respectfully suggest that we just ignore JPR from now on. [View all]MADem
(135,425 posts)31. For people who want to get their FIGHT CLUB on, it's the place.
I look at it rarely (usually when DU is down for maintenance) and it DOES take a strong stomach!

That's pretty easy for me to do. I never heard of them and don't care to learn more about them.
