Did you know the Hall of Shame was there?  Several of the people who responded 
to my post didn't know it was there.

How would you feel if some of your work were on the list, had been on the list 
for quite some time, and no one ever told you?

Remember, this is not a project designed only to say "This code sucks."  Its 
intent is to encourage people to improve their code.  My code doesn't 
magically get better when someone finds a bug.  It magically gets better when 
someone *fixes* a bug.
