What is the point of carrying on with this idiot drama?  Look, I'm a total ouseditr to all of this.  I have occasionally (once a month or so) checked in on JREF since the Bad Astronomer inherited the mantle of JREF Evil Overlord way back when on account of his much-heralded awesomeness.   Lo and behold, this festival of idiocy comes down the pike and upends everything.  JDG sees that XX registration for his conference is dropping, and instead of considering any number of other probable causes (economy, competing cons, children, etc), he jumps all over Watson's nuts out of the blue, on the god-damned internet, in the year 2012, and is honest-to-god surprised when it isn't well received.  THEN, every gormless man-child on the internet comes out of the woodwork to insist that no action can be taken until we have affidavits and video evidence of any harassment before any action can be taken by anyone, at all.Ya know, maybe I'm old fashioned, but what ever happened to meeting a woman, getting to know her, sharing thoughts and dreams, maybe racing go karts or something BEFORE moving on to the sweaty nerd boning?  I don't know what's sadder, that a grotty lot of hopeless forever-alones who can't handle the fact that they aren't good at dealing with women are upset that someone called one of their number out on this shit, or the fact that they are playing victim because the female population of TAM is going to be monotonically decreasing for the foreseeable future.  Now, look, I'm a manly man who enjoys his breakfast steaks and wrestling jaguars as much as the next peddler of unsafe ordnance, but carrying on like this is just asinine.  This so-called  skeptic blog  has done nothing in the month of June BUT obsess over this self-inflicted foot bullet that's turned gangrenous and is now in danger of becoming a terminal case of butt-pain.  Is this really the hill you people want to die on?  Do you all want to be remembered as the virgin kings of nerd hill?  If people like the folks commenting on this blog and the board of JREF can't get their shit together, then all they'l all be celebrating their glorious E-victory together at next year's Amazing Sausage Fest, and they'll have no one to blame but themselves.
