I've been reading this agog - really, how old are we here? But I have to say
that Bob's signature was absolutely spot on. It even caught me out until I
realised its purpose. Case in point.

I have to wonder how this conversation will look in the various archives
when a future PHP coder goes looking for a nice, friendly place to seek
knowledge and guidance.

PS: I also have to wonder how the attitude of "I don't like that rule, so I
didn't follow it" (not an exact quote) will go over when presented to a
police officer?
