  10. A citation, thank you, Nessa.

    Thank you, Thom. Janet Napolitano, really?

    Quilly, but Abaddon's an angel.

    Really, TLP? I didn't know that. Which one?

    Actonbell, it's a little funny to imagine Rincewind serving DEATH and Abaddon tea.

    Karen, I had a feeling you'd go to the source.

    That sounds like a bad one, Tilden, you bet.

    Jim, that whole whupping the beast thing is impressive.

    Susan, don't let them get you down. I'm having a little trouble keeping up with your issues at the moment, but I expect all will be well.

    Bear, I can't get that page to open, but I bet it's funny.
