@frigg: Perfect illustration of the problem with the slippery slope argument. Hope you don't mind if I borrow it...

@Yass80: Agreed, Awesome Note is.. oh crap.. noteworthy.

@RaindropBebop: You know, you can stand up for all boobs if you want. However, let me remind you of man boobs. I'll let you reconsider this for a moment and I'll be over here when you come to your senses.
