So true. And upvoted - Quora is one of my finest discoveries in the last two years. It has taught me immensely about various cultures around the world, and while opinion should always be taken with a grain of salt there are enough "factual" answers too. They are also a brilliant engineering company, and have some of the best web-based tools available to those who are asking questions and providing answers. No other site - I repeat, no other site including StackExchange provides as much functionality as Quora. The only downside is that they are sometimes a bit slow. For a forum who talks about free market at the drop of a hat, and tends to defend Amazon in every discussion; my message to get Hacker News is - GET LOST!! We are happy with the real name policy and we are happy to log in to browse the site. If you don't like it, don't use it. Good riddance.
