To be fair, they used the exact title of the article which is the way that hacker news guidelines are set forth.
I think your comment should have been more along the lines of "Amazing... it's crazy that a title on reddit.com did not get editorialized to sensationalize the article."
That would have been too n00bish, and besides, some people are going through and systematically down-voting every comment I post if you notice (as I'm sure this one will be, jerks).
They're both news aggregators; it's not so unusual to see the same content on both, as it's certainly an interesting article, and the identicalness of the titles is due to the fact that that was the original title.

Too true, too true.
I think your comment should have been : oh crap here come the 4chan wannabes. Lets urgently start looking for a new aggregator to frequent.

You expect Reddit to be full of politics and environmental stuff. Personally I don't like it on HN.
Agreed. Dont it let it degrade to that level please.
