I reported this question for verbal abuse and got it deleted. Muahahahahahahaahaaa!

    Posted by Ghost on 5 Jan 2010.
Was there any particular reason why you felt it was abusive?
    Posted by Wrongfellow on 6 Jan 2010.
The asker was a troll, he was calling answerers names. I doubt I was the only one who reported it.
