Cyber-space and meat-space (just learned that term and had to use it!) have their similarities. The theory is that if you ignore a troll the troll will move on. The problem is getting everyone to agree not only to ignore the troll but that the troll is a troll. Not likely to happen. That is why many forums have moderators and ban troublemakers. That would never work here because everyone is a troublemaker. ;) So, the world wasn't going to ignore Ann Coulter and the fact that I personally ignore her is meaningless.
