The MIRT folks should get paid triple time on November 9.

It's going to be a busy day for them. Trolls will "come from the voodvork out," along with the Gnurrs. Folks from the far right will sign up and log in to post their obscene rants. Others, who have bailed on DU for one reason or another, will return to begin their attacks on the President-elect, too.

As the rest of us celebrate Hillary's victory, we'll be hearing from "Name Removed" again and again.

So, I say: "Pay MIRT triple time on November 9!"

BONUS: 100 points to the house of the first person to correctly identify the allusion to Gnurrs.

My SF reading began in 1955, when I was 10 years old, and continued well into my 30s. For some reason, I sort of stopped reading SF after that. The genre moved more toward fantasy SF, and that never interested me, really. I was more of a hardware SF reader.

Posted a bunch of anti-Hillary videos - I was alerted to the activity via call to jury. I assume MIRT took over from there.
