Back when I was still writing email client software, my colleagues and I
all had business cards printed up with "job titles" based on something
Mark had said to us on the mailing list.  I felt strangely honored to
have been referred to as a "Serious Threat" (to the integrity of the
IMAP protocol) just for some comment I made; I don't even recall what.
One of my colleagues was "Pedantic Crank" for pointing out something
inconsistent in the IMAP4 grammar.

Ah, those were the days.
