This comment is longer than the article it responds to. A good new years resolution for the interwebs might be to Keep It Short, Stupid! The definition of "comment" also needs revisiting.

This comment is longer and more substantial than the article it responds to. It gets its point across very, very well. Keeping it short at the expense of substance gets you Twitter; this is Hacker News.

One of the great things about Hacker News is that long, and well thought out, comments are encouraged.

I don't think the comment was overly long for the story it contained. And I really enjoyed reading it, I'm sure I'm not alone.

I don't know about you, but it was the most interesting thing I've read all day.

As far as I'm concerned the writer is more than welcome to post comments of this quality of any length and I'll happily read them.
