When do the Fodor sweepers come through and clean up these threads? I can't say that I blame them. Sometimes I'm just wishing all the hatred would be erased. <BR><BR>Sometimes, though, we lose good ones, like the other day, when we lost the one on Venezuela. It was actually educational and got quite moving towards the end, even if we had to get through a lot of crap to get there. It was of the moment, I guess. But I'll never forget it. Who'd have thunk it?<BR>

Funny you should say that. The location of Venezuela in Latin America was one of the things we pointed out when this provocative, troll-like thread first appeared on the Europe board. <BR><BR>But, it turned inside out and got to be a really good thread.
