According to my sources, Aurabass has been banned because he linked to someone else's material. I cannot substantiate if that is the true reason or not, but I will say that, for myself (and hopefully many others) his banning is a loss to BSD. Grimace at his constant references to certain points of testimony or discussion if you wish, but he certainly poured a great deal of work, energy, and passion into his support of us Penn Staters.

Ironic. We have people both within and outside of the Penn State community who are dancing for joy in the bombed-out streets of Happy Valley. Ostensibly, their reasons range from bringing the true light to us cultists/apologists to showing us how our football fanaticism means the end of civilization and a return of Sauron's reign. Who is shown the door? Someone who defended us, our standards and ideals, and the one person who admitted, "With the benefit of hindsight, I wish I had done more."

His banning also meant the deletion of his posts, and all comments and responses to it. This provides a golden opportunity to rehash every sickening point that has been discussed to death since "IT" took place -- something to look forward to if you get tired of outsiders laying guilt trips on you.

I have to be out-of-touch for a few days (family emergency in PA, and no internet service), but I hope you all will take a moment to thank this Volunteer for his support.
