When human decency finally becomes extinct, Mr. Weiner could end up as part of an exhibit in a future Museum of Human Nature.
Based on current trends, will future generations even be able to comprehend the concept of compassion? Meanwhile, let's hope that Mr. Weiner, and those like him, possess strong replicable genes.

Thought you were being facetious, but had to double check (reviewed your past opinions) and discovered: you certainly are.

This guy, Jason Weiner, and others like him; don't know whether to praise them for altruistically helping so many, truly existing and living like Jesus, or criticize them for making me feel guilty.
