Snakes On A….
Web Services uses a protocal that has an acronym of SOAP.
Snakes On A Plane can be shortened to SOAP.

Tampering with evidence?
Hypothetical situation:
The company you work for was issued a court order demanding you turn over all the presentations that the company’s employees have given. Further, let’s say you have always done your presentations in OpenOffice.org Impress. You burn a CD-R of your 100s of presentations and include a README.txt (launched by an AUTORUN.INF) that says "Anything not opened by PowerPoint can be opened by the freely available OpenOffice.org at http://www.openoffice.org/"
Later, your in-house legal council coimes to you and says "Lawyers don’t have OpenOffice, we need to make this more user-friendly to lawyers, can you convert them to PowerPoint?" After arguing over free and easiness to obtain of OpenOffice, you give in and convert them all to PowerPoint.
Let’s take it as a given that no file format conversation is 100% accurate. Let’s also assume that the spirit of the court order is for the presentations you actually gave.
Did you tamper with evidence? The PowerPoint version is technically NOT the version you actually gave. Or is it good enough?
To no one in particular….
Next person who uses the words "XML" and "pre-parsed" in a sentence, such as "this is pre-parsed because its in XML," gets a free cockpunch from me.
