I intended to say this here, but accidentally put it in one of the other submissions, so I'll copy it here ...
In case you're wondering why this isn't apparently getting any attention or discussion, it has been submitted before, and the story has certainly been discussed before:

The first of those was nearly six months ago, the last just 9 days ago, so the story is "live" and getting discussion.
