My comment does serve a purpose, to point out how useless this article is, since some people obviously don't notice it, and vote it up.


Your comment did not point out anything other than the fact that you personally think Atwood's articles are useless. It did not contribute anything to the discussion, and it garnered knee-jerk upvotes from people who, like you, hate Atwood's articles. I don't often downvote, and I never downvote for disagreement. I downvote comments that either add nothing or take away from the discussion, and your comment was a perfect example of that.

If you have a particular problem with this article, then follow the example of edw519 and elaborate.


However, I find myself voting up some articles that I wouldn't recommend, but the comments have lots of value.
