Argot Navis

Many of you, I'm sure, don't read Dan Rutter's blog. You probably should, as it's usually pretty entertaining, especially if you're a nerd. His entry today about an e-mail exchange he had with a rather interesting character is a must read. Here's a bit of it:

“THERE IS AN ORCHESTRATED CAMPAIGN BY THE POWERS THAT BE TO FRIGHTEN PEOPLE AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT SCARE STORIES INVOLVE REPTILIAN ALIENS AND ARE OBVIOUSLY FALSE SO DONT LET SUCH NONSENSE PUT YOU OFF FROM FINDING OUT THE PLAIN TRUTH ABOUT THIS VERY IMPORTANT SUBJECT”

You know you're in a strange business when one of the biggest concerns you think your customers might have about a product involves reptilian aliens. I'm glad I came across this today, though; I was beginning to believe all those scare stories I was hearing about the Trandoshans.
