Heh, that reminds me of back when I worked at BURST! Meida, they had an 
add campaign that played on WBCN looking for new tech people. It was 
-HORRIBLE-. Nobody in the tech department even knew about it until we 
heard them on the air.

A few days later the CTO came up and asked us what we thought, we all 
told them they were crap (with the exception of the one suckup that said 
they were great). The HR guy that did them and got them on the air got 
fired, they got -ZERO- responses.

I wish I could remember the dialog.
