It's weird how articles like this one get upvoted so much, but don't get discussed. I looked for comments several times, and even though I read it and thought about it, I was always hoping someone else had posted about it. I guess it just speaks for itself.

I wonder about this too. Sometimes you come across thought provoking articles that cry out for comments, but there are none. If the article is already a few hours old and fallen off the front page, and you do post a comment, it probably won't get a response. This greatly decreases the incentive to comment (since what you want in the first place is to discuss it with others).

I now try and leave a comment if I find a good article that has slipped through the cracks.
