First encounter with this one was a few weeks ago when a Dutch-speaking client insisted I use it in some insurance copy. When I declined, he googled it and came up with the following supporting ghit: "And since the betas apparently go out to people who aren't familiar with the fucking Tribes universe while I'm at home jacking off to the Starsiege manual." I think he may have been extracting the piddle somewhat. (MM kindly remarks a recent, distinguished case involving Fabien Barthez, which should help resolve any residual doubts.)
