I've come across this article by Doug Robinson on Chuck Pratt while trying to dig up information on Gaston Rebufferat.
I was searching for RR and cross-pressure.
Anyhow, coming out of the article (which is definitely first-rate, Doug), I decided to bump it but then found it's not really doable.
And then I wondered, "WHAT WOULD HAPPEN if one were to use the URL in a thread topic?"
How would the computer treat that?
Would the wrath of God (if there is one, let's not get side-tracked here) descend?
(I'm sort of afraid to hit 'Post this Topic' but here goes nothing.)
Fingers crossed...
NO! Wait...
Just in case, here's that link again.

One more time...

Well, that's a little dramatic, but my first-glance impression was that it was a spammer thread. Had to look twice to get it. Not sure what the purpose would be in posting it this way.

In answer to Apo's Q--
The purpose is simple curiosity.
The resulting drama is exciting, if a bit over the top, but it's STyle, otay?
It's not as dramatic, say, as having no pro for a long ways off the deck, which was Chook's Style before there was STyle.
