Rant line redux
The Mirror’s rant line went down with the ship. I even grabbed mtlrantline.com (for free) on the off chance of doing something with it, but meantime, somebody else did something similar and this happened.
Now Alastair Sutherland, aka Al South, has reopened “his” rant line, which should be regarded as the definitive rant line, I suppose.
Mr. Sutherland, if you see this, get in touch and I’ll figure out how to transfer mtlrantline.com to you, if you want it.

John should keep running his site. some healthy competition is always good.

In theory, but this isn’t business. The anglo community is small, so that splintering a feature like this might easily reduce interest in each one to below minimal amounts.
Hamza, seriously man, are you OK? Your postings this week feel just a tad manic.

personally, i’ve always found the “rant line” to be completely idiotic. “walk up the left side of the escalator, YOU ASSHOLES!” “your backyard barbeque smoke goes right into MY window!” “to all those people who want condos on the plateau: rot in HELL!” why bother with a dedicated “rant line” when you can get focused, interest-specific uniformed diatribes simply by visiting the comments sections of the journal article on your particular crank. it was funny in the 1980s when being uncivil and deliberately ignorant proved a counterpoint to the msm formulae, but now it’s just moronic.
