    Yep. Your post was funny.
    Mine was, too. ...because we both referenced old /. articles.

    Apparently, the moderators of my post (and now yours) are themselves semi-literate troglodytes with short memories. (Mine was an older article about misspelled auction items, and the mods are too used to poor English skills on this site to note the inherent humor.)

    Ho hum.
