FOTW In some ways, The Flame Of The Week (FOTW) a misleading title - as we don't always get around to posting a new flame every seven days. Any delay, and we get accused of losing our nerve.

That ain't so: we simply don't get enough interesting flames to merit publication each week.

This is not a call for spoof messages.

Previous Flames Of The Week include:

• Mike Magee sleeps with Dr Tom Pabst
• Take Your Pig Ass Licking Crap off The Net
• Register scum sucking whores
• Register people are anti-free speech hypocrites
• Register panders to Society's Fetishes
• No one believes The Register's lies anymore
• LinuxOne doing better than The Register
• I'm screaming at you, you Moron
• Sack Pete Sherriff Now
• Shame on you for supporting Open Source
• I'll get you, Penelope Pitstop
• Register just Intel lackeys
• Register staff only fit to shovel s**t
• Register nothing but anti-Mac geeks
• Register anti-American
• Register unoriginal, not funny
• Two many typos, apostrophes, underlines
• Guest Flame of The Week: World's most travelled man is pathetic braggart

And here's the inspiration for FOTW
