It's not in any way about the article. Are the effects of snakes in Guam not close enough for you? :) Anyway being tangential or meta doesn't seem to be an unpopular thing in HN. Also, you can't flag comments. (Edit: Yes you can.)

lol - I love that someone downvoted me for suggesting someone else's post was off-topic/tangential. Oh, HN... I didn't flag the guy - I'm just positing why someone else did. And you're right - you can't "flag" comments. The correct word is "downvote" - sorry.

  You actually can flag comments -- you just need to click on the "link" to the comment and the "flag" shows up (if you have some appropriate karma level).

    You've opened a new HN dimension to me. Not that I'll use this often, but it's good to know it's there.
