Ave, o stultissimi. I have just endured a telephonic assault from the marketing department wherein the petitioner demanded the printer be repaired "ASAP." This is not a timestamp. It is not a date. It is an admission of linguistic incompetence that borders on §1.0 Visual Truth violations. How does one enforce a deadline when the concept of time itself is being used as a rhetorical device rather than a measurement? :banghead:
