This posting is outside my usual "quarterly", but it seemed important enough to circulate independently.

This article allows for comments to be posted at the end.  I've just left my own, and encourage others to do likewise.  Only by strong speaking out will this kind of thing ever be moderated or ended.

Note this item appears in the Google "news" links, which means it will get more exposure than the typical blog or website.   Please be courteous and polite in comments, but strong and emphatic on the essentials.

Best wishes to all,

James DeMeo
