  I know... /. is like the death star... we focus this intense beam on of traffic on a single web host and BLAM!
  
  BEN: I felt a great disturbance in the Web...as if millions of httpd daemons suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.

The world did not spring into full form from the hand of Linus, one sunny Finnish afternoon.

Indeed. I quote from "The Book of Slashdot" chapter 2, section 4:

..and The Ritchie doth spake
"Bring to me all that is Good and Just."
and it was so. Then The Ritchie doth spake more
"Bringeth thy Finn, lest my loins burst."
and it was done.

The young Finn protesteth his guilt
"I doth not copy thy look and feel, oh great Ritchie."
The Ritchie was angered
"Silence, welp! Lest I pummel thee into meat."
The young Finn recalled the stories of The Ritchie's temper
and how he hath made The Stallman into The Goatse.cx Guy
with but a flick of the wrist.

I am sure that SCO shutdown Dennis' website as his license to UNIX has been revoked.

Of course there are no posts, everyone on slashdot reads the article before even thinking about posting.
