<humour> Once, long ago at MIT, there was a flamer so
consistently obnoxious that another hacker designed, had made,
and distributed posters announcing that said flamer had been
nominated for the "asbestos cork award". (Any reader in doubt
as to the intended application of the cork should consult the
etymology under flame.) Since then, it is agreed that only
a select few have risen to the heights of bombast required to
earn this dubious dignity - but there is no agreement on
*which* few.
