ALERTER'S COMMENTS:

whining about DU

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sat Jul 6, 2013, 11:42 PM, and the Jury voted 1-5 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Whining about DU does not merit a jury hide. Send an SOP alert instead.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: LOL! As opposed to the "the party's over" whinefest. Get over it.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT and said: Have to agree with alerter. Opinion of the OP has dropped in last several weeks

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
