Thanks for the feedback! It still has some rough edges, but I'm really glad to see how people respond to it. It's a combination of a few really new concepts on the web (social news, wiki) and the relatively obscure concept of "causality", so figuring out the right UX/UI for it is my priority right now.

> So the idea is basically amassing a bunch of people's subjective opinions about causality?

Yes, that's the idea. There's also a mechanism to strengthen the strongest causal relationships through upvoting and downvoting. This way, hopefully the most reasonable links show up on top, but everyone's opinions can be represented.
