"since automatic hyperlinks have been removed, people don't check out the links posted."
Do you have a way of verifying that? Several times since hyperlinks were stopped I have copied a url that was posted here, opened a new tab and pasted it into my firefox browser. How would you know if people did that or not?
It seems to me that there has been a slow down here for at least the past several months. It certainly doesn't seem as busy here as in the past. That could account for some lack of response to Thorwald's post.
Also, I'm not sure what Thorwald expected. A sudden rush of mea culpa from FGs over that article? Yes, it's horrible stuff. We all know that. Personally, I don't think there's any significance implied by the lack of response to it. It's more likely, as others have pointed out, that traffic has slowed here and many of the regulars from the past no longer seem to post here, at least not as regularly as before.
