Is this technically feasable, Todd?

How about we give Todd a break?  Kick him (JW) out or don't - don't
ask Todd to spend his very valuable time hacking into his code to come
up with something like this.

I'm sure Todd COULD do it, but boy, the things he could be doing
instead - things that would be positive and beneficial.  Any more time
or energy spent on encouraging JW to act like a worthwhile member of
our community is time wasted, imo, especially if it's Todd's time
we're talking about.

Don't mean to jump on you personally for this, but this became
ridiculous a while ago.
