From the book of Stanley, chapter 3, verse 22:

The people of Michigan cried unto the Lord, saying
"Why didst thou give the people of Ohio so many lovely trees?"
The Lord answered
"Yes, my children, I gave the people of Ohio many beautiful trees,
but I gave you Ann Arbor."
So STFU.

I mean, c'mon, isn't DU the place for civil disagreements and rational discussions, occasionally leavened by humor? What kind of forum would this be if people were constantly trying to police each other's posts?
