That Cesspit of Spite, Envy and General Nastiness...

Which lurks below the word 'Comments' on so many websites, and is especially venomous in 'the Guardian' is best avoided at any time.  I so wish that Charlie Brooker's idea could be instituted and ground glass would automatically be sprayed into the eyes of anyone who even thinks of entering a comment.  But, in a fit of masochism, I decided to see what the explosive combination of Rowling and the Guardian's readership would have and, among the all-too predictable bile I discovered something worthwhile: a link to the text of J K Rowling's  address to the Harvard graduation ceremony.
A truly inspirational piece from an admirable person and well worth a few minutes of anyone's time to read.
