Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Manach is right...

There's some extremely tasteful humor about this.
It seems to help people deal with things in some way.

I don't think it's fair to say that a person who would crack a joke about a tradgedy is simply sick.
People have different ways of dealing with things, and trying to find something amusing in such a situation is just one way.

I can imagine people having suffered a loss finding this one somewhat gratifying: http://www.theonion.com/onion3734/hijackers_surprised.html
I certianly chuckled...
