Hey Roy, I had a strategy entering COLA. It worked quite well. This was
my first post:

--------------------------------------------
man(9)

NAME
	jason - Geek posing as a good lookin guy ...

SYNOPSIS
        jason [-nmgb] [--nobeer] [--morebeer] [--guinness] [--newbie]

DESCRIPTION
	jason assists the new linux user in the use of basic command
	line syntax. Each option specifies the flame verbosity.

OPTIONS
	-b --newbie
		The friendliest respnose to query, coupled with
		hand-holding and printed man pages. Not to be used with
		--morebeer.
	
	-g -guinness
		Unpredictable response wavering between high humour and
		awful sarcasm. Sometimes provokes spontaneous writing of
		ridiculous man pages.
		
	-m --morebeer
		Ouptput iz reedyrected to /dev/hosed. Yooz whith
		cawshun.
	
	-n --nobeer
		Friendly response to query, usually with a healthy dose
		of intelligence.
	
SEE ALSO
	weirdo(18), sex_machine(69)

BUGS
	The -g option can sometimes become confused with the -m option
	if $DATE == friday or saturday.
----------------------------------------

This was around early 2002. Worked great! It brought the trolls way out
to the forefront for plonking and the advocates applauded loudly. The
separation was exquisite. I thought you might like to see the strategy
in that.
