I didn't and I flagged it.
- bobsil1 13y agoSubmission guidelines: http://ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html http://ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html Upvotes are evidence of hacker interest. TV news would not cover this, too inside-baseball. But I hear you, you're not interested.
- throwaway9848 13y agoWell, with every bit of respect that is due, you're off the frontpage in almost no time at all in spite of 45 upvotes. That means that you were heavily flagged, even though most people didn't waste the time to tell you.

- duncan_bayne 13y agoThis comment tree is now at least six nodes deep. That suggests a reasonable degree of interest :)
