The Best of Rationality Quotes 2009/2010 thread has calmed down, so now it is a good time to write a comment about how observation has changed the observed. People looking at the quote collection went on up- and downvoting comments. 173 upvotes and 11 downvotes were passed out in the last week. (Not counting votes for December 2010 quotes, which are still in flux.) Here are the comments with the greatest number of new upvotes:

• 5 by Nic_Smith
• 4 by Kutta
• 3 by Eliezer_Yudkowsky
• 3 by Rain
• 3 by DSimon
• 3 by RichardKennaway

The bottom of the list is less interesting, none of the quotes got more than one downvote.
