I am baffled by this and have no idea what it means.  I think it is  
sarcasm, but I don't understand what it is referring to.  I think  
this is a hint that crash information can be obtained through a  
method/procedure/standard called WER that sends paper copies of  
reports and that RunRev and the rest of us obviously should be aware  
of and take advantage of this.
