Best comments nominations

I would like to open nominations for the best reader comment on the Belmont Club.  The rules are:

• It should have been submitted by someone other than myself in this version of the Belmont Club or in any of the archives.
• The comment should make sense on its own and not require the context of the main post in order to be comprehensible.
• Supply a link to the comment in your nominations by obtaining the link location of the comment. For example, the first comment in the previous post by Life of the Mind has the link value http://pjmedia.com/richardfernandez/2009/10/27/code-review/#comment-1
• After the nominations close, I’ll tabulate the most frequently suggested comments and conduct a small poll. The prize is a modest gift certificate from Amazon which I will pay for.  Many people have generously donated to the Belmont Club. I think it’s only fair to give the commenters a small prize back.
