The editor, Kurt Greenbaum, noticed that the commenter in question's IP address was a local school, and contacted the school to alert them that someone from there had left a comment. And then:
"About six hours later, I heard from the school's headmaster...The headmaster confronted the employee, who resigned on the spot."
Lesson of the day? Don't post comments on StlToday.com or its editors may call your boss.
