The announcement didn't state the intended use - which, given the
ingenuity of some, is most reasonable.  But there are those who will
believe whatever they read, as long as it's in a report, and especially
if the report is automatically generated.  Must be true, then, eh?  A
report, eh?  And done by one of them infallible computer dinguses, eh?
