somehow, that's a role i _cannot_ see nsh playing. :)

but seriously folks, we don't need to pull those kind of stunts. granted,
they're pretty much SOP in dirty deals, but other methods of getting the
message across works just as well. for deals like this, i'd go on a
strategy of show and shame, i.e. show them publicly that there is an
alternative way of doing it which is cheaper/more efficient/more reliable,
then let the mudslinging begin. it may not change the outcome, but at
least it gets some word out.
