[TxMt] Best Change Log Ever?

[Dave Grijalva]

there are people out there who are bound to be offended by anything (you
know who you are, and you are probably even offended by this message).
Don't let it discourage you.  I know a ton of people really enjoyed that
little surprise.  Just as it makes users feel good to see how active you are
in this forum, it's great to see that an application as "boring" as a text
editor can have a bit of fun.
