" ...You hadn't exactly gone out of your way to call attention to them had you? I mean like actually telling anyone or anything.' But the plans were on display...' on display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them.' That's the display department.' With a torch.' Ah, well the lights had probably gone.' So had the stairs.' But look you found the notice didn't you?' Yes,' said Arthur, `yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying "Beware of The Leopard".' -- Douglas Adams.

| Oct 3, 2012 at 2:28 | comment | added | John Gardeniers | Thanks, that make much more sense. | |
| Oct 2, 2012 at 23:57 | comment | added | Shog9 | No, I didn't say that. Perhaps I was too diplomatic. I've edited. | |

Too subtle. Again.

| Oct 2, 2012 at 23:11 | comment | added | John Gardeniers | So you're saying it's OK for anyone to tag any question canonical whenever they feel like it. Great, that should really add value to the tag. | |

It occurs to me that some folks may not be aware of these...
