Jerry Garcia was missing half of his middle finger on his right hand, lost after a wood-chopping accident. One of my favorite bars has a lot of cool rock memorabilia including an ink print of Jerry's truncated hand. It's fun to compare the

Arguable, but let's assume that is true. It still doesn't tell me the purpose of this site. Are they trying to raise awareness? Affect change? Is it a feeler probe to test a niche website? Are they religious fundamentalists who want to

The comment you are replying to was obvious irony. Everything before the P.S. was pure sarcasm, and everything after the P.S. is a further indication of this fact. Maybe you meant to reply to the GP?

My guess would be because this has already been discussed many times on HN so they felt it was better to just call it what it was. I'm not saying I agree, just making an observation.
