Do we need to sink yet another West Wing Spoiler thread?
Maybe we could get the mods to merge it with the other thread...

1. 24 hours is more than reasonable for internet timing
dontcha think?

What if the person walks into a supermarket next week and sees Smits on the cover of TV with the Title President - will the scream bloody spoiler?

5. If you wanted to use your power for good,
perhaps you could drive the kudzu thread down into the archives for keeps. That would be a true test...

6. Well, I think the thread we sunk stayed sunk because it got locked
So while I was effective at mobilizing people to bury it to a back page, the only reason it stayed there was because no one could post to it.

I don't know that my efforts would be equally effective on an unlocked thread.

3. It was on the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel Web site yesterday morning.
And in the paper, too...I think if someone is really, really avoiding spoilers at this point, they'd best avoid the Internet in general.
