I noticed the exact same thing but didn't think it was worth a post. Glad you did !<p>I even checked wikipedia to see if I had not missed some US Holiday.<p>November 13 is the World Kindness Day, but I guess it's not related. :)
Mostly people only comment on stuff that relates to them, pertains to things they care about or gets a good enough psychological reaction to comment. My opinion on the matter.
