Ah yes, one fifth of steel. Makes perfect sense.

- 4gotunameagain 2y agoHow is refreshing to read a comment reply easier than reading the first damn sentence of the link ?
- stavros 2y agoSome of us don't read the articles because the comments are more informative and useful.
- alexander2002 2y agoI often dont have the competence and time so selective comments are often more informative for me
- alpaca128 2y agoMaybe they got the same UI bug as me, where the entire article was squished to a width of about 2cm somewhere on the side and almost invisible between the links to other articles, making it seem like there's only the headline and nothing else.

- dash2 2y ago"One fifth of world's steel" makes sense, was it something else before?
- alexander2002 2y agoIt said "One fifth " initially when posted.This was probably due to a bug or mis-spelling
