3. From looking at the responses their threads receive now it may not be far from the truth
Edited on Wed Apr-01-09 03:38 PM by Mike Daniels
Most threads seem to have less than 50 posts now whereas you'd have multiples running over 100+.

I'm wondering if a bunch of people decided that they couldn't express their opinions without begging for a visit from their local police or FBI and decided to shut up.

7. Are they abandoning FR for Beck's wacko 9-12 site?
Which reminds me, I need to find some teabagging action for April 15th.
