Maybe you're thinking of Froyo?

Metadata is actually the proper term, and used appropriately. IAA Intelligence Analyst. The metadata debate revolved around phone collection, not email. Take your conspiracy theories elsewhere.

Homer once automated his job with a plastic dipping bird, with disastrous results.

I did look it up. On several sites. Wikipedia (and several of the links thereon) define fiat currency as one backed by a government. If you have a better source that says the opposite, please post it.

I don't do anything like this for a living, but I must say I'm impressed. I'm fairly certain someone will say this was done back in 1997 though so it's nothing new.

I think the best part of this whole debacle is everyone has apparently believed this blogger about her first hand account of her memory of an event from several yeas ago when she was admittedly stoned without batting an eye. The problem isn't Wikipedia. The problem is terrible critical thinking skills. The fact that the edited article is about a literal minded person just makes the irony even more delicious.

Has anyone verified that this actually happened, or are we taking the words from a blog literally true? You know, the way Amelia Bedelia would.

Do you know what the word plethora means? I would hope that when someone uses the word plethora, that person would know what that word means!

That's a great long term strategy to take to our next planet(s): use up all available resources as quickly as possible. Sure is easier than figuring out how to live sustainably with what's availble.

Well, you nailed that one.

Surely the number of congressmen computer literate enough to edit Wikipedia unassisted would be small enough to check by name.

Cool story, bro.
