I avoided that thread like the plague; I more or less had a fair idea of where it was going to go and how it was going to end up. If Neal or Jim or any other moderator feels there is a good reason to lock a thread, I respect their decision. It's not censorship, it's calmer heads prevailing. If anyone feels they really, really have the unquenchable need to flagellate deceased equines, there are plenty of other places on the Net to vent their particular brand of opinion...
My lord, you have no idea how many times in the past I have wished I could do this...
