Exactly.
There's plenty of blame to go around there.
Blame is a waste of time... we need improvements. If you're thinking about blame you're thinking about the wrong thing.
Oh, please. Two words on a mailing list does not mean I don't take the issue seriously or that I'm not one of "the folks who are dealing with this kinda garbage". Your generalization is inaccurate, insulting, and unhelpful.
As I said, it sounded like you were belittling the concern, I'm glad that you've clarified your position. In the future you could avoid causing me to draw such incorrect conclusion by avoiding characterizing our response to a terrible attack on a private person as a response to "an angry celebrity". :)
