*One* of the things that turned up in the DSS was a reasonable facsimile of the Sermon on the Mount. "Apoplectic", "Ballistic", and "Hysterical" barely suffice to describe the mental condition of the Catholic clergy who discovered this, since of course... oh, never mind, you should be able to imagine the sordid details from that much...)
