Hang on a minute, guys, before you answer.

I need to run in the kitchen and grab a six-pack and a bowl of popcorn to 
watch this thread.

I saw this on the NBC Nightly News today (Nov 19) and the analogy to

Of course, nobody dies using automation to work DX.

As one local in NJ put it, "Search and Pounce" has become "Pounce."
