  Easy, big fella. This is a new site, and while it's modeled after Slashdot, we're all still in the phase where we're mingling around and deciding how things work. I just signed up for an account five minutes ago, myself (whee! I have a four-digit userid).
  
  That said, I agree that a comment would have been more appropriate. Hopefully that will become the norm in a little while.
