Do you go out of your way to harp about everything Godot touches, or is it just something that happens?
I've just assumed she had a crush on me. :-) The comments she's talking about, weren't even mine. but "whatevah", i changed the article anyhow. i like destroying wikis, don't you know.
The comment is in the 1st version of the article and Godot wrote it.
