Oh, this could be fun.  A nerdy thing to do is to get into a deadly embrace of questions and their responses!  It can go on for days.

My favorite was one that showed up in my mail client as to: "[hidden email] and 83 other addressees."

I guess the address [hidden email] is a consequence of the sequester.
