Mmm, This is my current preference. I think it conveys its good intent and
is accurate without being too specific.

Ahhhh, it gives me little shivers....

Ooooooo, it's like a cool breeze across my sweat-beaded brow....

You know, I don't have a magic handbook that says this is the case, but I
must say, it has been my gut feeling for a very long time.

There's something about a gang of strong-minded characters expanding with
heated argument - crowding up my already small control room. [gasp]  Almost
makes me want to shout, "Hey, you kids! get out of my yard."  ...now, would
I do that? ...NAH, of course not!

But I imagine like, Joe X simultaneously happening to post about our server
flickering on and off, and it coming out like a tiny peep, while the gang's
Peep(tm) looks like one from a microwave oven... (try it)

I don't mean to complain, it's just that, the amount of time I have for
reading LUGNET each day is limited, so putting the percolator off to the
side does seem like a good thing.

I appreciate your being receptive to the idea.
