QuoteAmongst our weaponry are such diverse elements as: fear, surprise, ruthless efficiency, an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope, and nice red uniforms.

It's on every mod page in this site :D All I can think of is... someone around here is crazy.... Actually everyone I suspect..

FWIW, it's from Monty Python's 'Spanish Inquisition' sketch, but I've no idea who quoted it here and why!

No, there is nothing wrong with liking Monty Python.  I was asking if Grudge's comment was a confession to putting that comment into the mod page ;)

Grudge

I do believe I may have had a hand in it :p

It was supposed to be an HTML comment so not sure how it gets displayed incase of an error :/

hehe, checked it:
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?action=about:unknown

http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?action=about:unknown&verse=2:18
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?action=about:unknown&verse=4:16

standard is 4:16, also about:mozilla redirect
I think [Unknown] has something to do with this :)

Edit: 11:11 is the latest and seems not to be implemented.

Maybe [Unknown] is writing a book for the final release of 1.1 ;)
