I don't get it. When I first looked at this thread it linked to a Wikipedia page. I even commented on the contents of the Wikipedia page. (See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polywater https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polywater) Now my comment makes no sense because the context is gone, and I can't edit my comment to point out why.

It only takes a little work to answer such things. Both https://news.ycombinator.com/from?site=wikipedia.org https://news.ycombinator.com/from?site=wikipedia.org or https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&query=polywater&sort=byDate&type=story https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que... lead to https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23248733 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23248733, which contains the answer: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23249978 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23249978 I remember your comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23249126 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23249126) because I had to decide whether to include it in the merge or not—so I checked the new article to see whether it mentions Cat's Cradle. It does, so I included your comment. If it hadn't, I would have left it where it was, but then many fewer users would have gotten to read it, and the replies it has since received would not exist.
