That article has over 600 comments. Quite a lively debate! I'm afraid I don't know what aggregated means.
Two extremely large website/forums decided to borrow my headline and send users to this article.

Parenthetically, French flint might have been used as ballast on a ship that dumped it, here in the New World.
