[Jeff, if this is for real, no hard feelings, eh?]

Is this for real?  I've only been around a newsfeed for about 5 months
and in this time I've seen 3 or 4 requests *exactly* like this.

They always get (at least one) followup to the effect that maybe the poster
should also get a spelling checker.

Is this some kind of organized, banal "joke"?

[No offense intended.  Flames to /dev/nul.]
