Actually, he probably meant “Slappa da bayss”. -Barry P.S. I was going to say that I prefer past tense when writing news items, but then I looked at the change log files for some of my personal projects and I came to the shocking realization that I actually don’t! Looks like the FLUFL prefers present tense. I do however like to use parentheses for functions and methods. -Barry
