To me this is another sign the written word is dead.
With so many mechanisms for creating users and posting en masse, I find it really hard to believe the contents of any comment or post I read that goes past a paragraph or two. And of course I am still skeptical even if it is less than 2 paragraphs of text.
I find the contents of that specific post hard to believe. Specially since the user hasn't participated in the conversation at all.
I like this place a lot and it saddens me we are just going to see more of this.
