Do askers get alerted about comments?

I get frustrated when my answer is clearly the best but the asker is too stupid to realise it.

I'd like to think that they at least read the comment that I put, but I don't know whether they're even aware that it's there.

Do askers get e-mail alerts about comments in the same way as they get alerted about new answers?

Unicorns always know the answers to your questions. Go to them. They will show you the path to take in life. You will one day find the answer to every question you have. The Unicorns have a mystical way of answering questions. With just a tap of magiic from a Unicorn horn, you will succede in life and know the answers to all the mystical wonders of the world. Be careful, though. They are very jealous creatures. Devote your life to them, however, and they will do you no harm. Stay away from the shadow unicorn, because it will mislead you.

No, but most of us are pathetic enough to go back and see if there are any comments...
