I'm your biggest Fan
Tell us about your heroes. No. Scratch that.
Tell us about the lengths you've gone to in order to show your devotion to your heroes. Just how big a fan are you?
and we've already heard the fan jokes, thankyou

Not all of them
The BBC's nice- I was a member of the Robot Wars club thing (Had to be a member to apply to be on the show- yes, sad bastard I know!) and in the members magazine there was the typical crappy kids mag "biographies" of each House Robot.
One of which mentioned Shunt being powered by cold fusion.
So smartass little (well, 12 or 13 year old) me decided to write in debunking that idea. A surprisingly long letter was written, citing sources from all over the interwebs and books from the local library (you wouldn't believe how much interesting stuff is in there!)
I got a very polite letter back from the producers (well, apparently. It said so on the letter and that was good enough for me) telling me that they were very sorry for the mistake and that they'd not mention it again in future.
So not ALL corporations are dicks.
