/Well, I think it was easily worth it. On the "fun people" scale, you'd expect
encyclopedia editors to be right down there with accountants and morticians,
but April Fool's demonstrated that, as a community, we have the capacity to
step back for a day and not take ourselves quite so seriously (even if 99% of
the time we're acrimoniously bitching about VfD or Autofellation etc...) I'll
add my thanks to all those people, too.

/I'm not against having fun, nor are most of the people who argued 
against encouraging the April Fools Day insanity. On the other hand, surely 
there's a better way to have fun than vandalizing wikipedia, because 
 - don't kid yourself - that's exactly what was going on.
