Well, yes, it does vary from story to story - but I also read unfiltered, 
if I filtered them so I saw the interesting/insightful comments 
primarily, that probably would make a difference.

I always remember the types of responses Nat Friedman or Miguel de Icaza 
end up getting after putting in their 2c.  The people writing to them are 
*usually* not very nice.
