Seriously, why is this on hacker news? I understand it may be very relevant to a lot of people's personal habits, but christ... I can see the SAME crap on digg and reddit anytime I want, at least 2 or 3 times a week a medicinal marijuana article will appear. So please community, lets try to keep this site niche news and relevant. I come here for intelligent discussion about programming, startups, movements in the web, etc...
