Out of a thread discussing a likely terrible incident, a CHS neighbor defined the purpose of this site in one perfect comment:
This blog is just another way to talk with people around you. The news and the paper just talk at you with their info. The blog gives a chance for real communication and debate. Be thankful people care enough to be respectful. Be thoughtful of other’s perspective. Keep it in perspective. It was not all that long ago we had that rash of problems. The Stabbing on 15th. The night club problems and the gay bashing. We must all come together in an effort to look out for each other. Be good neighbors! (in real life & on the web, its more important than ever!)
Open minds are why I give a damn about CHS — though I often forget that open minds might disagree with me. Thanks for the comment, neighbor.
Hear hear!
Quick question — is there an easy link I’m missing to link to specific comments? I see how to manually number it in the URL but wonder if there’s an easy link included in each comment. Sorry if this has already been addressed.
on our list. in meantime, gotta build by hand. lame, i know, but we’re busy with classifieds dev
RE: linking to specific comments: For now, it looks like you can do this if you go via the View All Comments link. Click on that, see all recent comments, and then hover over the subject line of the comment of interest. Right click and the URL is there to copy, save or open.
