Falwell died. As I did my usual survey of local blogs I noticed that community response was being expressed quickly and I posted about this fact in Blog Local on R.I.P. Jerry Falwell .

I purposefully did not enable comments because I wanted readers to go to blogs listed and converse there.

My post got picked up by PNW Topic Hotlist and at the moment is #1 on their Hot Top 10.

Also southsounder on the conservative action site townhall.com has posted Rejoicing death. Their link to my original post is captioned "quick to rejoice and display their hate". I myself have commented there with another view.

I find all this fascinating.

So this is a comments enabled post. Have at it, nicely. No name calling of your fellow bloggers allowed. I don't have any brilliant questions to get the ball rolling, do you?
