Anonymous@1:06 a.m.: Monitoring the forums is like baby sitting. Just look at this thread today. If only the higher ups monitored the forums more, then maybe they'd understand.
There's a reason I require comments to be approved on my blog. Yes it discourages comments but I'd rather keep out the garbage and have a few patient, intelligent posters than a thousand idiots.Jim Hopkins@1:39 a.m.: I realize these threads sometimes get long and kind of out of control. But I really do moderate each one, and I read every comment. I err on the side of not deleting comments because this is the only site where employees can speak freely; I don't want to do anything to discourage that. I'd rather have all those comments here (in this open forum), instead of the way it was before -- cluttering up posts where the comments (generally) stuck to a single subject.

I'm glad to see you leave up the homo and old fart-type comments. Those could say a lot about the outcome of the company's diversity initiatives!
