Many mails ago the first sparks of fire ignited into a full fledged flame, fanned to life by the righteous. The encroaching heat set off yet more fires kicking off a chain reaction of bursting fires. Some perished in what is now called the great flame war of 2011-01. However, hope has now resurfaced for the struggling survivors and from the burning ashes a single beam of light shines thru with the cold audacity to squelch further conflict. All hail the great phoenix Jeff Jensen, Peace Bringer. Or more simply, what a great gesture Jeff!
