"Maureen O'Gara commented on 23 October 2004:
* I'm really sorry everyone. I want you all to know that this was really intended as a satire piece, but the editors didn't realise and have published it as fact.
It was really hard to keep a straight face while writing it, and I was obviously hoping for the same reaction from my readers.
Oh, the ads here are satire too. Have you read the M$ TCO one? It's a hoot!"
