I just wanted to say y2karl has some great posts lately [1, 2 & 3].
I liked them not for the content, but for how he did it.

In order to understand his point I had to read the links. Not only that, the TITLE tags he put in there were wonderfully informative.
I've seen others do this from time to time, I just think it's quite nice.

I like the idea that to fully understand the thread people need to go and read something, learn something to actually make a comment that makes any sense.
After all, we are all here to learn something, are we not?
Anyone have any favorite threads, based on how they were done, not what they talk about?

A gold star for y2karl, whose exhaustive thread regarding minstrel shows is the reason I keep showing up here.

I love, love, love, love, love this post. Love.
With so much trash-talk being thrown around this site recently, I just wanted to point out something good. Thanks, y2karl.
