Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

It will be so sad when the anthropologists finally get a hold of the tallest and the shortest guys' bones because then they will have a field day declaring that they have found more proof of evolutionary species as well as more missing links in the fossil chain to prove the theory of evolution.

Think I am wrong? Remember how easily evolutionists have been duped with pig bones and other stuff as well as how many years it took them to correct themselves under other scrutiny?

This is why evolutionists are so error prone when they make sweeping guesses and conclusions based on such little evidence.

    I think the record measurement is kind of another Western stupid mania of advertising crap, who cares, and even worse how someone will be officially the tallest, when we know there is someone taller, that just refuses to be measured.

    Now, flippmon , your are just dumb, as all the creationists, that even in the 21st century still think that the Earth is 6000 old, Noah put polar bears, kangaroos and penguins in his ark, and that men and dinosaurs lived together, which is only in the Flintstones; which by the way your user name rhymes with; but you wee probably home schooled with the Bible instead real science books, Bible can't do everything for you Flinstone.

              If it was a difference of fractions of an inch I might agree with this. The fact that the Mr. Stadnyk is almost a foot taller should make this a "no-contest" contest.

                Has anyone noticed that the majority in the world has gone metric? Measuring someone in feet and inches does not tell me anything, you msnbc guys. I will never ever take one your surveys again if you cannot put in measurements for ALL your readers. Why does the republic of USA still count in imperial measurements? Is this backwardness, a non-tarrif trade barrier, laziness to learn, arrogance, or what exactly? There must be some puerile readers here; who cares how big his penis is and privacy laws would prevent that publication anyway. G'd day from Australia.

                  Why can't you give metric measurements, or do you not want international readers? Imperial measurements do not tell me anything and the republic of the US should really go with the times now. Is this a non-tariff trade barrier, backwardness or what exactly? I'll never take your surveys, if you can't put in measurements that I and most of the world do not have to convert. There must be some really puerile readers, what's his penis size matter?

                    Mr. Stadnyk claims to be 8'4", but there is no independent evidence to support this. The doctor that supposedly measured him, now says he never did. Finally, all photographic evidence suggests that he is around 7'6". Bao's 7'9" height is comfirmed and beyond disputed.
