Odd suggestion.

I'd love that, this stuff gets so depressing. My only concern is we might run out of upbeat stories fairly early on.

If an issue arrises I don't really care what day it is? If the airplane fiasco fell on the "happy day" I would still post it because it needs to be known asap. I do like the idea of more positive posts. It really does grit on a person seeing nothing but negativity, but I don''t think setting a day aside is the best way to go about it. That's my 2 cents for whatever it is worth

I think we do a pretty good job of sending 'everything went right' to the top of the page almost every day as is.

It's much better to take pleasure where you can and gradually see yourself able to take it more and more than to set aside a time each week.

Plus I wouldn't want to turn myself away to the negatives just because I could, makes me feel diry, '/feminism'ey, wrong, etc.

I'm all for positivity. It's easy to get mired down. That's why once a week I wear a kilt and throw hotdogs at womens studies professors down at the university. It's super-theraputic!

I think it's a good idea, but i also think it will be hard to find enough such stories. The other problem that comes to mind is the international nature of this place - in a few hours it will be Monday in London but still Sunday in Aus, and even LA and NY are a couple of hours apart.

Very good idea. The world is still a beautiful place and this is still an exciting time to be alive! Yeah, men get the short end of the stick in a lot of areas today, but there's a lot of great stuff too!

I tend to think that good things don't need our attention.

As I tell my employees, "Bring me the problems and we can fix them." The stuff that's not a problem can take care of itself.
