There's some pretty moving images in there, hard to capture and yet incredible to chronicle for Matt. Given my limited knowledge I'm best to just read what others in larger markets have to say but to me it seems interesting that a large publication such as the Washington Post, newspaper or magazine regardless as the medium, to kill a story such as this when there's a luxury in this story going out to such a mass audience. Where some wouldn't find it necessarily 'happy' as the publisher feels, others would find it motivating as they continue through their daily trials, some fairing better than Lindsay and others much worse.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

As popular as I would like to think SS.com is, it may be best served in print where it was originally meant to be. It was one of the most moving pieces I have read or viewed in a long time. Takes a lot for this grown man to start sniffling at my desk while reading it on my screen.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
