Personnel
gollark: Isn't this one of those "basically a population heatmap" things?
gollark: Well, I have a lot of *music I like*, but this is inherently very subjective.
gollark: I'm not really sure what to do about this or if it's much of a problem, but the sentence structure seems kind of simplistic.
gollark: Sure? I'm also not sure about `of the less fortunate`, that's weird grammar.
gollark: For one thing, the intro is a bit confusing and it could be read as "Mark" and "the man" being different.
