Been there, tried it, failed miserably. Couldn't easily contact the
author :-/

I also don't particularly like j2's way of doing things, but I guess
it may just be a matter of personal taste.

Before xmas, I'd been discussing this stuff with a guy called Aidan

Which is basically take a known good pattern, and permute it.

I started to implement this stuff several months ago, but never got
very far :-/
