WOW! I love those guys. Jeff Deck and Benjamin Herson are now my official heroes. Heck, they're probably even my patron saints.

Let me state right now that I support those two 100% and think that they're doing a FANTASTIC work. Rather than being punished, those two ought to be subsidized. If there's a way to join TEAL, sign me up right now!

So you're saying that MormonDiscussions.com is a national monument? I would have to agree.

I wouldn't say they were my heroes, but I'll chip in with a "good onya".

Then there's the grammar vandals. Sign at gas station for after hours customers: "Night Counter".

Someone erased the "o".

Because vandalism is totally sweet and heroic, amirite. I mean, who hasn't wanted to deface public property and national parks. They probably did it for the lulz.

They weren't defacing or vandalizing. They were correcting and enhancing.
