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.

I don't feel sorry for Hawaii. I can recall on one of my business trips my spouse and I went shopping and walked into a store and we were ingnored. An Asian couple walked in and the drew immediate attention from the staff. This was during the time the Asian tourists were spending money like they could never run out. My wife and I were on the beach at Waikiki next to the Sheraton Palace. I walked up to the restaurant and asked for a couple of apples. The waiter came back and asked for $4. I told him I lived here. It cost me nothing.
Had dinner one night at Tony Roma's. They had reduced the amount and raised the prices. The ribs were very fatty and greasy. I asked them to take it back and they did but returned with the same ribs in the same manner. The hawaiians want their island back plus reap all the benefits from the federal government. I say give it back to them except the benefits.
