It was partly because I had been thinking about a related thread from 2 years ago:

5. I said it then ...

... and I'll say it again.

That's John Hancock type stuff right there.

For anyone who didn't experience the thread when it happened (and it was an event, not just a thread) this simple message inspired and lifted people at a time of extreme despondency. I had met Mortos (the only DUer I've ever met) shortly before this thread at a watch party. Our spirits were so high, and it all went so wrong so quickly. But that thread encapsulated what I felt he was all about based on my short experience meeting him. "Here I am. This is what I believe. Deal with it."
