A fairly earthshaking development in the world of Congressional pages, I'd think. Wonder why there were no comments, other than the single one from yesterday, on something that would obviously be of keen interest to them? It's as if they were aware of the firestorm to come.
Here's a little eye opener I wasn't aware of:
scroll down just a little.

See number 258. "Yesterday" was September 29th. I don't know right off hand when Loraditch shut down the Forum, but it was probably shortly after that. The blogger who figured edmund's name may have the exact shut down date on his blog. (PassionateAmerican I think is the name)
I figure the owner shut it down very soon after the firestorm, for various reasons, including all of the personal details I was able to find (such as names, emails, AIM etc). Would have been reporters going after those kids like reporters do - a lot of what I've read is actually very endearing. Many/most of them seem like great kids, trying to help each other out. Often very mature & polite.
