come past and moon your office window?
They probably knew we'd pick up on it straight away anyway.

Wikipedians run the show, and any Wikipedian who saw that report
probably got up off the couch and strolled over to their computer
just to make sure it didnt get out of hand. Wikifaith - apparently
Colbert has some sense of it. Wikifunniness too maybe.
Perhaps the best place to have mentioned it before the episode aired
would have been the Village Pump or somesuch. I agree that notifying
Wikimedia would have been unnecessary.
