So I make notes by prefixing them with ### - a combination entirely unlikely to come up in any command I might utter, even counting sed. Thus,

I disagree. They deserve all members of the legislative branch executed. Firing squad preferable, fire acceptable.
This couldn't be more blatent - "You are not a citizen, taxpayer, you are a suspect."

Moron. How about reminding people what every ten year old knows the world over, that not getting an invitation means you're not invited?

One of the side effects of knowing you can't totally trust your physical perceptions for twelve hours (hence the importance of guides and saferooms) is a state of mind conducive to questioning assumptions about other perceptions as well, e.g. social cues/mores.
