Hehe, I've done that before.. but, we all learn from the mistakes and 
improve.. so it's all good, even the nOObs will get it ...eventually.. 
maybe.. hopefully.. I dunno... =P

I'm kind of for this too, but.. kind of not.. for the "lazy".. it's SO much 
easier to just push out two `` then it is to do: [code] and [/code].. or 
<code> </code>.. but, if this were to possibly change in the future.. I can 
just imagine how much more stuff will be screwy.. because most have 
kinda/basically gotten it drilled into "them" to use the backticks.. ``... I 
dunno though.. just was spittin out my thoughts..
