I started this blog back in March 2005. Went on hiatus from Aug. 06 to April 07.
And it wasn't until now that I received my first death threat:
"DEATH TO RACE TRAITORS!"
Makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside, doesn't it?

Do you have sitemeter? Tell his ISP, get the bastards internet turned off.
I do have a sitemeter.
But I'd prefer to have him on the internet. It helps me to keep track of them and what they're thinking.
"Thinking" -- doesn't seem to me to describe what is going on anywhere near that commenter.
It's cognition. Thinking, that is critical, rational empirical thinking is a developmental skill, and it took our species quite along time to get to the point where we could think scientifically.
The type of tribalistic conspiratorial "thought" displayed by these groups is actually more natural than critical thinking. That's why I look at them like an anthropological curiousity.
