22. The BEST? Or ALL... yikes.
One thing DU really lacks is a real rating system. (At least, I don't think there is one. I'm a n00b here.)

Rating systems tell you two things. One is which articles DU folks thought it was most worth their time to read.

The other is which articles DU folks thought it was most worth their time to read.

The difference? You get to see which articles are probably pretty good AND you also get to make your own decision as to which articles are the best, and as such, you develop an understanding of where your fellow DUers may be missing an important argument or article.

The number of comments in an article says nothing about how good that article is, and kicking, well, that's a pretty lousy wayto do it.
