Guys? Please, stop. It's one thing to have a great long running joke where all parties are 100% humored by it. I can't speak for Brian, but I'm going to toss it out there that that's not the case here.
And independent of anything else, that possibility alone makes me uncomfortable. So unless it's made plain to me that *all* parties involved are completely ok with the "great brian dorsey" as it has been developed up to and including this thread - please stop it. Kill the meme. From my perspective, it's bordering on harrassment, and it conveys a dismal image of House to list lurkers or anyone not intimately aware of the joke. The tone of the joke, in my (perhaps unpopular) opinion, crossed a line in this mail thread. Also, this list is a publicly indexed Google Group. I encourage you to question whether you've posted anything on this thread that might cause clients / colleagues / contacts to question your professionalism (outside of House / Labs) if they saw the thread (bearing in mind that they're unlikely to seek any further context). I apologize if I'm being overly serious about a trivial joke. But I am indeed serious in my request. Please stop.
