It seems that the D community has been getting better in regards 
to writing about why it's such a great language, but most of the 
stuff I've seen on Hacker News/Reddit is from a select few, i.e., 
Walter, Andrei, a scattering of a few other people... Hopefully, 
though, the recent "call to arms" for article writing will 
facilitate an influx of publicity for D.
