The ratio of meta comments to object comments on this post is about twenty to one right now. That's a pretty good ratio but I think if we really tried we could push it up to 40:1.

It's an impractical idea for a thread. People may occasionally bookmark good articles, but (generalizing from my own example) they rarely bookmark good comments. So I'm not surprised that this thread was something of a failure.

So far. Once people know there's a place to put them, they could trickle in.
