There are a number of comments on the website (mostly if not all
hidden) that are by people who are clearly reading this list, but
rather than engage in dialog here post anonymous criticisms on the web
site.

for example:

      Re: Rosa Parks Human Rights Day March
      by Leon Trotsky
      ltrotski (nospam) redarmy.mil.ru (unverified) 	13 Dec 2005
      
      Yeah, so opposed to slavery that he commanded the Confederate army.

      This site is being ruined by the new pro-right-wing-troll policy
      instituted by the petitbourgeois dilettante faction of the IMC
      editorial collective, namely Jamie and Jonathan.

There are others.  Basicly it would be useful if people voiced their
oppinions before a decision was made so they could be discussed and
considered rather than just whining anonymously after the fact.

Another post I wouldn't have hidden, as I don't have any street cred
to maintain, but it does fit our editorial policy for hiding and I
suppose we should be consistent.
