Re: Fix Headline...
trip, that's an awfully long stretch to interpret a headline, particularly when the word "thwart" was not placed in ironic quotes and the supposed sarcasm/playfulness you've pulled out of nowhere isn't supported in the body of the article.
Grammar police? You're an idiot. The headline just didn't make sense, and the news manager here agreed.

| B, the EB headline ("Hot Mail Servers Thwart Sober-Z") is obtuse, especially if read "Hotmail," instead of "Hot Mail." I believe the idea is that Webcentral's data center was trashed by heat, not Sober. It's a play on words.
Of course, I had to read the full article in order to understand the headline.  |
