One of my first assignments when my talents were acquired by the big A
architecture firm, was to review a set of docs for such things as
details that would surely leak.  I found a few.  In fact, I probably
found a few in every sheet.  My skill at finding these was very much
appreciated...by my colleauges who shared this task...it meant I got
buried in the dietary items discussed earlier, leaving them with less
to ingest.  I try to be helpful.  But them fancy pants designers don't
seem to appreciate it.
