“It isn’t the spam­mers and the trolls that piss me off the most. They’re easy.
“It’s the fuc­king pedants that make me want to kill someone.”

    Hey Hugh:
    I’m with you, itwould be great if the Sept. ’04 Kryp­to­nite inci­dent would just fade away.….… ;)
    By the way, loved the stuff you did with BL over at “Up your Bud­get”!
    Happy Holi­days.
