As a young "minority", living in the South (Appalachia), I just don't get this... People in the South have been as kind, welcoming, and intelligent as people from other areas I've lived/visited. There are idiots on all sides of the politic

Great article. Another suggestion if you don't mind... the floating Steven Kovar block makes it difficult to zoom in and read in a mobile browser, as it floats on top of the text.

This is getting silly now, the hash for my unique strong password was in the list. And there are many others who have stated the same. It should have taken them a whole of 5 minutes to find if these hashes were from their database. It's

http://babble.ly/ allows users to generate links for their phone numbers. When the link is clicked, babble.ly connects both parties. Share the link anywhere, and when you're done with a link, revoke it.
