I suppose that's possible, but I imagine that Craig was pretty careful
about weeding the corpus before he started basing the GA on it.

I have a handful of false-positive hits on that rule in SA2.01; all
involving a guy who uses CrescentNetworks.com (capitalized like that)
as a domain name.  I'd imagine that many of the false positives are
just normal occurrences of "Avalanche", "Calypso", or "Crescent" in
the header.
