Mr. Brownstoner, you're not going to say anything about the 'Closing Bell' post you pulled today? I saw there were a bunch of critical comments and later the post is pulled. Maybe an apology isn't necessary but you shouldn't pretend like it never happened.

Hey 8:59 - What was the post, was it controversial or something?

It's his blog, he can do whatever he wants.

He showed someone's address for all the ID thieves to see. It may be his blog, but the posting was not the best decision.

Wasn't Mr B's undoing, people's addresses show up everywhere. Lessons learned from Ms Jolly Ass of Washington Ave, CH
1. shred your mail, don't just drop on streets or anywhere
2. take responsibility, don't be a pig
3. your too lucky to be American, in Singapore, they lash you 50x for spitting, vandalism, littering, etc
4. don't be inconsiderate, you lazy ass

One of the things that I have admired about Mr. B is the way he has exposed revisions; for example, placing a strike-through over original language when words have been changed, instead of just revising them. It seems to me that something similar could have been done in this situation. However, for all we know, the addressee may have requested that the whole thread be removed, and it would be honorable to respect such an explicit request.

It never should have been posted. If I were her I would have called my attorney.

@10:02am you are a tool. Tell me where you live so that I can take a pic and post it on some Brooklyn blog. Sue me asshole, I dare you. See what happens. You're pathetic.
