Hmm, I got 146. My method was: load the page, use command-F to expand the comments, search the page for “[+]” and click on all of them; then select all, copy, and run:
Then pipe the whole thing into wc, yielding 146. (Also, this method captured 918 comments out of the 924 the page currently reports; there are 8 deleted comments, so I’m not sure exactly what explains the difference; oh well, it seems close enough.)
Well, for one thing, I made a dumb arithmetic mistake, so my result should’ve been 147, not 121.
That’s actually still off by 2 from yours (because GreaterWrong labels the OP as such, without a letter identifier, resulting in a total of 148). I do not know why this is.
