Today is odd for HN:

* How Photographers Help Parents of Stillborn Babies (newsweek)

* School Recess Improves Behavior (nytimes)

* Adult Fast-Food Diets Tied to Too Much TV as Teen (washpost)

* What Do Women Want? (nytimes)

The new media/social media PR zombies are here!

They seem legitimate to me, at least reference the guidelines for the site.

It's not like you have to read them.

How do you get 0 points on a submission, I wonder?

Good question. Doesn't the board mechanics prevent that?

It has happened before, as a result of accounts being flagged as unable to vote.
