Perhaps I got a bit disappointed when a piece of obfu was presented as the finale
I'm sorry to let you down but it was my evil post. ;-)

I worked on this post for a very long time (probably somewhere in the neighborhood of 18 to 24 hours over a period of about two weeks).

It started out as a simple idea. As the obfuscation evolved, so too did my ideas for the surrounding text. I am quite sure that if I had went ahead with my original idea for the text, it would have received some very snide replies.

Perhaps I'll even post my first draft of the obfuscation just so you all can have a good laugh at my expense.
