New and Improved Comments

We are launching a major overhaul of our comments section.

In addition to more robust spam filtering and moderation, new features include the ability to rate other comments, sort how they are displayed and respond directly via e-mail or in a thread.

Unfortunately, commenters will lose their existing Truthdig identities. It's a pain, we know, but on the plus side you will now be able to log in with a plethora of options, including Google, Twitter, Facebook and Disqus accounts.

Before launching this system we spent months in discussion with our top commenters. We listened to the feedback and we hope you like what we've come up with.

Please direct any problems or concerns to us via our contact page.

Wrong!  You can’t have two evils in the struggle between good and evil.

Unless, as is the case in the USA, you have a Madison Ave. able to convince huge nos. that one of these poisons is the good poison.

Think about that.  This vile stuff does more damage to our citizens, especially kids, than just about anything else and it’s not only acceptable to guzzle it, guzzling it is promoted with the approval and encouragement of our government.  Soft drinks?  Bullshit!  This stuff’s as “hard” as it can get. 

Good one, Fish.

My question is:  does this machine give change, manufacture counterfeit change or just promise the customer a great product while not vending the product or returning the deposited cash?
