Welcome to The House of Madness(Inspired by Infocollapse.com)

Okay, here's the rules to help make this easier on me. You can post whatever you'd like, but if you're going to quote from an article, please link to it as well. If you want everyone to just check out an article, don't paste the entire article into a post. The posts should be relatively short to make browsing topics easy, but feel free to rant a bit if you have a strong opinion. Let's be reasonable about each other and respect alternate views. Post as if you were trying to make your point, not just spouting. Typically these blogs are one sided, so the poster gets to say whatever and then the comments section is where the debate takes hold. We've got many posters with many different views, so posts should be written with a good bit of tact. Save the slander and personal attacks for the comments pages. One last thing, I reserve the right to reject or alter a post for content. I want to make it absolutely clear that my reasoning is not to limit the debate, it's to expand it. I will not change what anyone wrote or attempt to respin someone's rhetoric, but I may move part of your post into a comment or change a quoted passage to a link to make things look cleaner. So here we begin again. Kid gloves off, but we're all wearing glasses so be careful not to swing at the face.
