...about the most popular stories of the year."
Such as the one about spelling reform, which I unfortunately missed.
In a hastily called press conference U.S. President George W. Bush, today announced a "nationwide mobilization of America's scientific and commercial resources" to create renewable and sustainable replacements for fossil fuels. When asked how the deficit-ridden government would pay for such an effort Bush replied that America's military would be rapidly drawn down to the level necessary to preserve the territorial integrity of the United States. "After all," joked the President, "we already have all of the food we need, once we have all of the energy we need there won't be anything to fight over." -And then I awoke.

I wonder how they came up with the "most popular" stories.
Obviously, it's all a plot to draw attention away from the interplanetary war started by NASA with all those missles, err, probes, that we slammed intto Mars.
