How I got the attention of the Press ;)

YATANIC, ICEBERG! DEAD AHEAD!
For weeks weÂve been striving
To save Classic Groups.
Since Yahoo just wants us
To jump through their hoops.
A group was created
To further our goal.
We threw ourselves into
The cause, heart and soul
There were 100 members
In no time at all,
All joining together
To stop this downfall.
We wrote YahooÂs Execs,
And the media too,
Even told Advertisers
What they planned to do.
We feverishly worked,
Though it was a gamble,
While in her blog, Layla,
Continued to ramble.
ÂStop this remodelÂ,
We shouted as one,
ÂYou have no idea,
Of the damage youÂve done!
YouÂre destroying our archives!
Post numbers are gone,
Threading is chaos,
And our subjects are gone!
We donÂt want your silly
Grey grinning ghosts!
Bring back our home page,
It mattered the most!
Our photos are scrambled,
Some even are missing,
Why are you doing this?
Our pleas youÂre dismissing!
We simply canÂt function
With your new ÂYabookÂ!
Just give us an opt out,
To keep Classic Look!
Things that were private,
Have been compromised!
Members lists show,
And even archives!
We have no control of our
Management functions,
Some people are thinking
Of filing injunctions!
The thousands of posts
In the Suggestion Thread,
Are all going ignored,
CanÂt you hear what weÂve said?
STOP THIS REMODEL,
We donÂt want this mess!
YouÂve upset us all,
And youÂre causing distress!
If we wanted Facebook,
Then we would be there!
Our groups are our ÂhomesÂ
Do you even care?
You came with a bulldozer,
YouÂre crushing them flat!
DonÂt do this, weÂd rather
Just stay where weÂre at!
DonÂt you know thousands
Of users are leaving?
And all of the rest are
Just sitting here grieving?
Please listen to us,
While we are still here,
Because if you donÂt,
Then surely I fear,
No one will be left,
To hear what you say
WeÂll be in our lifeboats,
All paddling away
Cause we see the iceberg,
And before it can hit,
WeÂve all made our plans,
WeÂre ready to quit.
So please take a minute,
Slow down and think?
Because your Yatanic,
Well, itÂs doomed to sink.Â
