Maverick is such a useful word, it's surprising it took until 1850 to appear.

Ahum, sorry y'all, had noticed the guidelines after some initial goofups then Matt wrote something a couple weeks back which I evidently incorrectly inferred to mean that though it was definitely a touchy subject (frankly it took Grama's death to even attempt another post at MeFi), that there were exceptions - i guess he meant on the projects page, which keeps rejecting every attempt I make to link ... I can't tell you, it'd be a violation! Good grief, my apologies to those offended and well done Sherlock Holmes!

priyatam, I served with Sherlock Holmes. I knew Sherlock Holmes. Sherlock Holmes was a friend of mine.

Douchebag, I'm no Sherlock Holmes.
