I think we need to remember that Anonymous's first post about the Washington
Post's article included some sensitive comments about one of the companies
mentioned in the Post's article. From what I can remember, the comments
were valid but sensitive enough to warrant posting anonymously. And it's
kinda tough to make an anonymous post and then reply to followups
UN-anonymously. :D
