We all know about Roy's headlines. I wish he'd quit making them up, and
just copy them from the main article. However, anyone is free to check out
the real story, and should, if they think it means anything to them.
Pretty much every fscking Subject and link Roy and some other trolls post
cannot be trusted, in my experience. Even if the mistakes are innocent,
it just adds to the chaff of this place.
Say, what brought you here from Google Groups to police things up?
