Uhm, so, like, I wrote it.  That felt really *good*.  Fixing bugs is a
drag, but writing new code makes me feel tingly all over.

I won't include it in September, though.  So it'll have to languish in
obscurity until Red Gnus.  Which should be something like two weeks
away.

  (1-
   (& 
    ("from" "lars" s)
    ("body" "you suck!")))
  (&
   (1-
    ("from" "geir")
    ("body" "no, you suck!"))
   ("body" "no, you suck much more")))
 100000)

This means that if Lars wrote in an article "You suck!", then articles
that follows up will have their score dramatically increased.  The
same will happen when Geir writes "No, you suck" and somebody follows
up with "No, you suck much more".

And here's the classic "when these two people talk to each other, they
should be ignored":

((|
  (&
   ("from" "lars)
   (1- ("from" "geir")))
 (&
  ("from" "geir")
  (1- ("from" "lars"))))
