That's from a year ago. Interesting read. But the random use of hyphens was killing me. "Wiki-pedia" randomly scattered amongst the proper spelling, and "pro-ject" in a sentence that had "project" earlier. Sigh. Wikipedia has broken me. The urge to find the edit button and fix this crap is overwhelming.
