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.

Well, you know where that quotation: “Physician, heal thyself!” comes from.

To their credit, however, I must point out that a recent split has prodouced a new organization called Psychologists for Social Responsibility (PsySR.org)
who are working hard on several important current issues, one of them being the refusal to accept as ethical the fact that some psychlogists prostituted their profession by “helping” the torturers at Guantanamo (which was, in fact, not a sinister joke,
but a hard fact that ruined many lives and now lies buried under a thin layer of “let sleeping dogs lie” expediency).

Looks like she’s been smothered with the pillow.  Was
it the Beaver, Wally, Ward, or the black sheep of the
family, Eldrige.

“don’t worry mr blue
we know whats good for you.
just think of it as sense
and not surrender.
but never think again
that you can ever think again
or you’ll get something you’ll remember.

CHORUS..
what will it take
to whip you into line?
a broken heart?
a broken head?
it can be arranged.
it can be arranged
yea yea.”  Mr. Blue by Clear light
