I don't wish to be a wet blanket but what's the copyright on this. We slag off JM for ignoring copyright so we ought to stick to our principles. I'm sure he/they wouldn't mind but shouldn't we ask first? Silver Sloth 11:01, 21 October 2008 (EDT)

You know, after all these years I still have no idea what calling someone a "wet blanket" is supposed to mean. Radioactive afikomen ^{Please ignore all my awful pre-2014 comments.} 20:31, 22 October 2008 (EDT)

It's how you put out a fire: smother it with a wet blanket; hence to dampen enthusiasm. (also a wet blanket would be rather uncomfortable) Terra 20:37, 22 October 2008 (EDT)

Wow. That's quite generous of them. I was half expecting them to behave many other organizations and say, "No." What a pleasant surprise. Radioactive afikomen ^{Please ignore all my awful pre-2014 comments.} 15:54, 23 October 2008 (EDT)
