This is a great article, but it was just posted to HN yesterday from USNews as well<p><a href="http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=383723" rel="nofollow">http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=383723</a><p><a href="http://www.usatoday.com/news/education/2008-12-01-test-ads_N.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.usatoday.com/news/education/2008-12-01-test-ads_N...</a><p>I am voting it up though, because I wonder if this is a problem we could solve here with this group. I doubt that this was duplicate posted maliciously, and it is an interesting story<p>I wonder if it would be useful to have a feature where rather than just "bury" or "mark as duplicate" we could link TO the original duplicated story. Since I <i>know</i> it was posted recently, and made front page, I would go through the effort of tagging it as such and linking (as I have just done). Perhaps then this "new" post would appear as a comment in the original thread?<p>If this (what I'm doing) is an inappropriate use of comments and voting, I apologize - I didn't want to post a whole new "Ask HN" about it.
