Just an idea, but is there any way to post this image at the top of the board for the next week or so?

Great idea...I'll certainly vote for that.

[JeeberD]

Agreed.

[cthomer5000]

It might be unpopular, but I'd rather not establish this sort of precedent around here. I don't look forward to debates about what is or is not tragic enough to warrant a posting on the board.

Sorry, but I agree with ct. What will happen a week from now that warrants the picture being taken off? Should people stop mourning at that time? Stop thinking about those who died? Stop acknowledging a tragedy?

edit: And I say this while acknowledging it's very nice and compassionate that dig wants this to happen.

I think this is a great idea.

This response shows that you either ignored or missed my point entirely.

i do see your point...it could create some rather nasty arguments down the road by setting a precedent that could grate on people's sensitivities, however, in light of this

i think that should effectively end the question of whether or not it is appropriate.

Who authors the front page?

Aye. Without trying to be an ass, I think our sensitivities are best left private and public, because what happens next time?

[Subby]

Nice call, digamma...

GB the forward thinkers. Where would the world be without them?

[Ragone]

Where was the Ribbon when the Bluffton baseball team's bus crashed?

If this had been some d3 school in Anchorage, Alaska, would the same effort be made here? Honestly I'd like to think it would.

[Ben E Lou]

Aye. Without trying to be an ass, I think our sensitivities are best left private and public, because what happens next time?Next time, I'll make a decision whether or not I think it should be done. Some people will like it. Some won't. That's ok. We should all be used to that by now.

Dola:

I figured out how to post it at the top of the board.
