Deleted post

This raises a lot of terribly interesting questions like “are the aggregators stealing from Scott by caching a post he later deleted” and “are they morally obligated to do so in order to feed his starving readers”, but I’m already torn between enjoying the fantastic weather outside or playing with my new Wii so I’ll leave these issues to you.
