I think the fact that it wasn't a working link was part of the
charm. It's a far more subtle way to convey the hopelessness
of the situation than something blatant like "Resistance is futile!" *
Anyway, I got a great kick out of that article. I laughed. I cried.
I passed it on to my wife and a few co-workers.

(* Or should that be "Resistance is useless!" ? Depends on
whether you lean toward Borg or Voguns, I suppose.)
