You know, as soon as I read this, the name "Brett Glass" popped into
my head.  Then, wouldn't you know it, he has to continue his crusade
against it, by chiming in as soon as it's mentioned.  

I wouldn't be surprised, Brett, if you had some scripts set up to

and autoreply with a random selection of canned sentences.  That's
certainly what it seems like.
