Come on, admit it, were you never tempted to flick chewed up bits of paper at the back of his neck?
In fact about a month ago MacUser published my letter to them on Phorm using the title I'd supplied of "Pimp my Data", but I agree it probably needs to be something politer, and maybe not so IT biased.

I was indeed in the row immediately behind Kent, about four feet to his left. And yes I was tempted. Though if you met me you'd find me far too respectable looking to believe that.
