Yeah look Reddit can be a pretty dark place, from what limited stuff I've read. 4chan too, for that matter.
To drag the conversation back to internet referrals, I originally found NXE through an Everything2 article (http://everything2.com/title/Neon+Exodus+Evangelion) that was last updated in 2000. Somebody should probably tell them that Apotheosis Now came out, um, a while ago.
