Why was this fact buried in the references without a specific mention in the body of the article and with a specific reference of its own. I needed a GPS to find it. Manytexts ( talk) 04:22, 29 February 2012 (UTC) reply

Hi Manytexts, the hook was designed to be "quirky", according to DYK terminology. Its wording does, however, directly occur as the headline of reference 3. -- Pgallert ( talk) 07:23, 29 February 2012 (UTC) reply
