Just shared several private chuckles mailing this around office..Why is this particularly ironic.. well, in this timezone, its Sunday afternoon.. we've been working non stop for the past couple of weeks for a "patch release" :D

To be fair, I can think of lots of times when I've played arsonist too, so I guess it sorta evens out..
