Thanks for replying. I figured people wouldn't read into it like that, but what I have learned is that one has to state very explicitly on Hacker News.

I agree with you and I was hesitant to state what I did about that.

Off Topic: I really wish one could not up or down vote anything without requiring a comment in reply stating your reasoning. I think it could lead to much more active and interesting discussions breaking out.

Maybe I was a little harsh stating I would down vote the submission.

Edit: Spelling and grammar stuff.
