I think Eric is on the right track here.  I'm not particularly concerned
about the baby diaries as such; I've never read them.  I am pretty
worried that a staff member decided to use root priveleges to delete
entire items with responses from many people for personal reasons.  No
matter how compelling the reasons, that is censorship and I don't think
it has any place on Grex.  I'm even more disturbed that Valerie isn't
willing to restore the responses from other people, even people who have
requested it.

As far as I'm concerned, this is pretty much a resignation from staff. 
If there's a staff member who is no longer willing to stay within the
consensus bounds of acceptable behavior, it's time to change the root
password.  :-(
