Seriously screwed up

If your all-time favorite simple machine is the helical inclined plane, if words like "panhead," "countersink," and "Pozidriv" have a mysteries hold over you, if your idea of fun is looking at vintage YouTube footage of Soviet-era screw-drive vehicles (and whose isn't?), you'll want to bookmark the singular hardware high weirdness that is the Screw Asylum.

A double post titled "Seriously screwed up" - That is just dripping with delicious irony.
I so want this to be a mistake!
Unfortunately, I'm cynical enough to believe it was intentional - which would make it nothing more than a cheap stunt.

Sounds like you logged on during a site update and found double posts. oooohhh....
Heck, it happens. Like we're prefect (sic...) PT gets it quick and everyone else wonders about the comment.

@Volkemon
It seems you have mistaken me for one of Make's detractors.
It wasn't that I particularly wanted to see a mistake in the land of Make. Only that I wanted the anomaly I did see to be accidental rather than intentional.
I realised that it was in fact a mistake or some sort of glitch when I reloaded the main page and the double post had disappeared.
It was corrected quickly and I should have known better than to suspect cheap trickery.
I have no desire to be an editor, senior or otherwise, you guys are doing just fine without my assistance. But thanks for the offer, anyway.
