Three words: Devil's Chocolate m00se.

Suddenly not being able to come to Matrixt00bage, while still very sad indeed, seems ever so faintly less sad. :-)

Seems to me that for the next time (if there is one) you should combine with another, gentler flavour.

Indeed. That would have done the cool-down job very nicely. Ah well, you live and learn...
