I hope so.  =)

Note that, at this point, there aren't any "helpers" for Anthill who have
the power to close bugs arbitrarily.  That will change as people demonstrate
their willingness to test out other people's problems, reply to bugs, etc.
There will definitely be a need for 2-3 volunteers to help keep the bugs
down to important stuff so that I'm not spending all day cleaning out the
anthill.  But I want to wait to see who does this on their own accord before
assigning such privileges to people.
