I believe he's talking about the thread when W Richard Stevens died.

  What happened? Stevens had some kind of hate club? Why?

  (Apologies for the very slow response.) W Richard Stevens died in 1999. HN started in 2007. Is it possible that you're thinking of someone else?

    They said slashdot, not HN.

      Ohhhh, duh, so they did. Thanks.
