This goes straight to my list of all-time favourite DF patch notes Here's some of my other favorites: * Stopped vampires from pinning their crimes on babies * Serpentmen can kick * Babies no longer start strapped with a knife * Dwarf children die from embarrassment for not wearing clothes at an age of 2 * Dwarves come to the hospital to rest without injuries (and also endless tooth surgery) * Fixed bug with mules shitting luggage * For some reason, horses are now made of iron. * Made undead respectful to one another * Rain kills everything it lands on * Fixed the range of evil creatures detecting eachother, causing werecreatures and vampires to climb trees because they are scared of hell * Sleeping on a melting iceberg results in waking up as a demon

"The NAME attribute cannot be set at run time on elements dynamically created with the createElement method. To create an element with a name attribute, include the attribute and value when using the createElement method."

"The bugs were so thick that they showed up as a rainstorm of mayflies on National Weather Service radar."

"This page attempts to explain all of the tricks and glitches used in the various movies for the different Super Mario Bros. games."

"if something you do raises a MySQL error (such as a duplicate key on insertion), SQLObject does not ever free the database connection used when that error was raised." Just ran into this...
