    ummmm, If you bother to look at the previous slashdot article, when it was covered before, it wasn't a kickstarter project.

    By the way, why can't I fund a closed (but funded) Kickstarter project past the deadline?

    Sometimes you can - just not on KickStarter.

    So, your response is that you can, except that you can't?

    It's useful to actually read the post your responding and to check your facts before posting.
