I think this is a great idea. I have a lot of "good news" bookmarks in my browser because I get so discouraged at all the gloom and doom on the internet. DU is a wealth of information and one of my many information watering holes but that element is prevalent also. So it's nice to see Skinner and Co. have created an oasis for good news.

It was depressing as hell.

I'm guessing the Good News Forum will be better reading.
