So, there you have it.

I'm not sure I would classify all of the comments above as objectionable, but many clearly are.

I contiinue to be amazed at how the Web seems to prick some of our baser instincts.

And, try as we might, we continue to have trouble convincing some people that adults who behave like children do little to enrich civil discussion on the blogs.

In one case, we traced a series of offensive comments to a teenager who had assumed his parents' sign-on during summer vacation from school.

In another, a poster threatened to blow up the civil rights museum and made himself the object of an SBI investigaton. (He publicly apologized on this blog.)

In still other cases, it appears that grown-ups seem somehow emboldened by the Internet to throw mud and insults.

We try to keep an eye on all of the comments but it's hard to do around the clock on several threads per day, seven days a week.

Please behave. Please remember that name-calling does not substitute for a logical argument.
Please remember that you don't flatter yourself -- that such comments are the blogger's equivalent of saying something about somebody's mama because he's at a loss for anything substantive to say.

And please report objectionable comments and we'll delete them as soon as possible.

In the case of repeat offenders, we will ban them from commenting altogether.
