436. Look, maybe you've missed something
But there has been a discussion, hundreds of them actually.

They go like this:

1) Science illiterate wackjob cuts and pastes a huge block of text from the internet.

2) Science literate DUer kindly refutes the nutjobery.

3) Science illiterate wackjob cuts and pastes another huge block of text from the internet in response, that doesn't actually have anything to do with the previous discussion.

4) Et cetera for 100, 200, 300 posts.

5) As the discussion continues it becomes apparent that the wackjob knows that he/she is lying.

Now multiply this by one hundred threads and you see the problem admin was faced with. The idea that humans caused the earthquake or tsunami is completely baseless. Honestly, the "WTC was loaded with TNT" theory has more basis in fact that the man-made earthquake discussion.

This is not squelching the free exchange of ideas, it's destroying a cancer of repeated lying that is killing DU.
