"If that's not a tipping point, I'd hate to see what a tipping point is," says Mark Serreze, the center's senior research scientist.

To keep the air moving, squadrons of choppers fly low, a maneuver rendered yet more perilous because the valleys are crisscrossed with electricity cables...
...anonymity, posting comments that show everyone how their parents, preachers, or school system failed to teach them courtesy and good values. That’s a given. But in the above instances, making fun of a person’s speech impediment seems to be a privileged category of hate. The IvyGate moderators declared that they would delete “hateful personal attacks,” and thus imply that the three comments I cited are something besides hateful or personal.
