This show was poignant to me, but I suspect it lost much of its impact if you didn't live through the event.
Karthik's comments about Chief Delphi resonated with me. I don't know how you improve the level of discourse on the site. For instance, how do you teach people not to claim that "XX happened because I know it did" with out verifiable data? Did you have the router in your hand? Do you have network traffic logs of the event? If not, all you are doing is throwing fuel on a fire that doesn't need any help. It increases the noise to signal ratio - and that's never a good thing.
I guess you have to look on the bright side - as a community website, the community needs to try and correct errors like that when we see them and hope that folks learn in the process. It can be incredibly frustrating when you get a new batch of folks making the same mistakes every year, but that's why we make the big bucks
