Don't flagellate yourself on this one. Your original link is focused and from memory the easier to read version and it did seem to be reworked. Moreover, I did get to see content of the link that CB put up via your post. So while I am one of the ones that complains, moans, pulls hair and trashes on the floor when I see sites reusing others content with no efforts, this is NOT such a case.

So relax, your statistics are good and in this case I do not put it in the error column.

I'm more than a little bothered at how close the stupid thing is. I loves me some "Big Bang Theory".

And hey, I like Macs, too -- so the Mini Cooper fits, too.

Psyche-up song is nowhere to be found, however: "Iron Man". Guess Black Sabbath lacks the appropriate "I'm a thinkin' guy" cred.

Don't you mean "thrashes"?

I expect self-flagellation, forthwith.

You're right. I guess as tc says, when I am done it is indeed trashed. [Could this be proof of the rule: Garbage In : Garbage Out ?]
