Well, actually an ending quotation mark should never be by itself on a line. There should have been at least one character before it, or some characters from the preceding line pulled down.
He also forgot to capitalize "anonymous" or provide a noun to make it work as the adjective God intended it to be, but two is still an all-time low.:P

Actually, there are a few grammar errors:
1. "anonymous" should be capitalized, unless that's really the poster's given name. Since this is obviously a created post, I think that not to be the case. Since it's being used as a noun, with no indication that it really is the poster's given name, it should be "Anonymous".
2. I think that the grammar purists here would agree that it should read:
Anonymous writes: "

Wouldn't that violate the gpl?
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty;
Depending on who you ask, "\n" can be described as two characters -- though, some would argue, it should be "\\n" for that string to be 2 characters long. But, wouldn't it be a 3-character string then?
How is it that the blank April 1st story gets more comments than all of the other stories that actually have content? Granted, the other stories are fake, but still..
Considering the ridiculous frequency of stupid-unfunny joke links being published, today is to the day AIDS is cured as getting frist post is to getting laid. If you can't do it on that day, forget it, you never will!
The sad thing is, today I think Fark handled the whole joke news thing a LOT better. I find something funny about Slashdot needing to take cues on integrity from Fark.
You see, not only have Farks homepage antics today been funny, or mildy amusing, you can click right through to go back to the REAL fark where REAL news is still submitted. That way you get to give people at your site a laugh, and then they get to continue what it is they wanted to do at your site. Way to go Slashdot editors, you just killed/.'s sole function for some lame jokes, and I hope your ad revenue for today suffers accordingly.

I think you're wrong about that. If you notice there is no comma. For connect punctuation you should use a comma before the quotation. Not only that, but the first word of a sentence should be capitalized. You will notice that anonymous is not capitalized. Also I'm not completely certain of this, but since anonymous is used as a name it should be capitalized for that reason. Although, since it may count as a personal pronoun then maybe it doesn't have to be capitalized. Regardless it is still the first word of a sentence.

And if we are ever to move forward to the future, we indeed have to punish - | for its headlong precepts. As I noted at the beginning of this letter, it's irrelevant that my allegations are 100% true. - | distrusts my information and arguments and will forever maintain its current opinions.
Be careful not to be charmed by - | 's epigrams. All they do is lay down diktats that force me to wind up in a straitjacket and locked in a padded cell. You might have heard the story that - | once agreed to help us pronounce the truth and renounce the lies. No one has located the document in which - | said that. No one has identified when or where - | said that. That's because it never said it. As you might have suspected, the central paradox of - | 's artifices, the twist that makes - | 's bruta fulmina so irresistible to prodigal libertines, is that these people truly believe that - | holds a universal license that allows it to impinge upon our daily lives. On a closing note, I hope that this letter, while incomplete, informal, and having no authority except its own inner strength and conviction, has clearly demonstrated to you that - | makes assertions that strain credulity.

This the best article ever on Slashdot. Simple. Yet revealing. Follows the Zen path to eternity.

If corporations are people, aren't stockholders guilty of slavery?
This is the text of a Larry Niven story. Read it (mebbe a 15-45 minute very quick read) and all about "Blank Sign Man" (I think he's called that). Basically, ****SPOILER****
****they're inside an anarchy park (no rules at all) and a dude walks around wearing a blank sign in a significant side story. *****END SPOILER
Very cool story and it reminded me immediately of a psychiatry experiment on free association.

I've coded multiple websites! And I do know that
"<br>

would leave a space before that last quotation. Last time I checked, HTML formatting doesn't come up as words.

I think you mean "both".
There should have been at least one character before it, or some characters from the preceding line pulled down
...<br> "
and
would leave a space before that last quotation. Last time I checked, HTML formatting doesn't come up as words.
Ahhh.. but > is definately a character, and it's right before the quotation mark. I'm sorry you can't SEE the character, but that's probably because you're using one of those newfangled WebWhatsit's instead of simply "wget http://slashdot.org/index.pl" like the rest of us.
Or not.
Anyways, I found it funny.

Funny, the only article posted today to have recieved over 100 comments is the one which has no content!
I know this comment *shouldn't* get modded up, but I'm crossing my fingers and hoping for a miracle.
Impressive article I havn't seen this of this caliber since 2minutes ago!
