I looked up the definition and such to see just what our new title means.

I must say, I like it much better than "DLC operative."

2. M'god, alerting WORKS!

I alerted on him last night. I've seen folk almost as bad, but never that militantly ignorant (don't know, don't wanna know). When you're reading stuff to him from a bio, and he's still not believing it, that's a problem.
