How's about we go for "frozen", throw out the existing quips list, and replace it with something actually funny? ;) https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/quips.cgi?action=show looks like a reasonable set. for what it's worth, looking around at other large public BZ's, there don't seem to be any that allow quip addition, so I'd guess others have run into this problem :( By the way, I'd forgotten about this -- any chance we can get the comment-by-email thing working again at some stage? --j.
