... waiting to be known. A mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam, kindling the energy hidden in the cosmic ocean of another world of rock and gas. Dream of the mind's eye muse of something incredible waiting to be known in the great turbulent clouds of the Rig Veda Euclid network. Of brilliant syntheses, the imagination circumnavigates the taht sky calls to us. Billions upon billions upon billions!
Vanquish the impossible at the edge of forever! Stirred by starlight of stellar alchemy, the brilliant syntheses intelligent beings is emerged into consciousness, from which we spring. Great turbulent clouds hydrogen atoms. Not a sunrise but a galaxyrise.
The cosmic fugue of global carbon in our mind's eye. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence across the centuries. Globular dreams of the cosmic fugue. A more glorious dawn awaits, emerged into consciousness intelligent beings. Preserve and cherish that pale blue dot corpus callosum.

As recorded in The Making Of Star Trek book (Gene Roddenberry as spokesman no doubt):
Q: Are you people on LSD? A: We tried, but we couldn’t keep it lit.
Fortunately, I never needed LSD.
BTW, the "Carl Sagan text" was generated by Sagan (Lorem) Ipsum auto-text-generator (with grammar clean-up by me).

Wikipedia Wrote:The Power Macintosh 7100's internal code name was "Carl Sagan", one of the the three "fraud" code names (Pilt Down Man, Cold Fusion, and Carl Sagan) referring to the PowerPC processor pretending to be a 68000. ... Apple renamed the project to "BHA" (for Butt-Head Astronomer). ... The engineers on the project made a third and final name change from "BHA" to "LAW", short for "Lawyers Are Wimps".
That was following Sagan's failed lawsuits about the codenames (originally in-house, and later "leaked" out). To prevent any more suits, Apple apologized.

Hey, interactive forums are fun!
But, seriously, I was going to suggest a few "classes" (just names really) of spoiler buttons. Besides Spoiler, we could also have ... Confidential (don't tell anyone) ... or/and ... Rated M (for "mature") ... or such.
Once the spoiler button is programmed, the subject-types would be in a drop-down to select.
