And I hadn't even
heard about the circus in Boston yet.  If you think my opinions on Bruce and
Neil are unpopular, just ask me about those events.


Excessive hyperbole?

I can't tell from your elliptical comment whether you're refering to my opinions, the media coverage,
or both.  In any case, I don't think sullying the public areas of this board with my thoughts on the
matter is the right course, particularly in the 10@10 section.  And I'm not sure if there's an appropriate
topic in another section.

For what it's worth, I think the media reaction to the Boston events was grossly overblown. Yes, it was a tragedy, nobody's questioning that. But the second coming of 9/11? Seriously?

Also notice that since the Boston events we haven't heard a peep from North Korea.
