Maybe if they do, the Age will start adding a comments ability on 
their stories, too, and stop weeding out the letters to the editor, 
which is a crap shoot as to whether they get 'published', even 
electronically. Perhaps the new editor will take that on board. I 
don't read the other papers, so this is a Fairfax issue.

Our truest response to the irrationality of the world is to paint or 
sing or write, for only in such response do we find truth.
