Every article on cryonics becomes a general cryonics discussion forum. My recent sequence of posts on the subject on my blog carry explicit injunctions to discuss what the post actually says, but it seems to make no difference; people share whatever anti-cryonics argument they can think of without doing any reading or thinking no matter how unrelated to the subject of the post.

Same with this article becoming a talking shop about AGW.

I should have followed my initial instinct when I saw that, of immediately posting a new top level article with body text that read exactly "Talk about AGW here".
