| re .0 (Rick):
If we can get them/him/her to amend the word to "sorting," could
"sorting" be called some kind of ex-sortation? :-P

| After things have been properly sortated, I would expect you could
extract and index of sorticity. A completely sortified file would have
an index of 1.0 with misplaced entries bringing the index down. DEC
standard 99999999 could be the Sortistic Architecture Document (SAD)
that would specify how to handle entries beginning with punctuation
marks, numerals, names beginning "Mc" and "Mac" and so on, to insure a
high index of sortification which leads naturally to easy indexualizing
of documentation.

Such as:

Farmer Fanny Candy
Any more?

I'm appalled at the misuse of the English Language in the above paragraph.
The first semicolon is definitely out of place.
Security, see that this man receives his final paycheck.

It's no worse than the extremely common (around here) "deinstall".

| I recently read a memo from somewhere deep within Digital. I think
the author was trying to say that a recent advertising effort had
not been successful and that there was a need to improve it. What
he did say was that it needed to be "more impactful."
Capital punishment would be too lenient for this offense.
