Notes

Note 1: As with the Hollywood Oscars, the growing number of Jolt categories has been subject to satirical sniping; thus, suggestions arise that there should be an award for “Best Spreadsheet written in LISP by an Albanian unijamb”.

Note 2: From the Greek for spear-carrier, whence an order of nit-picking beetles, whence “one who takes excessive delight in finding small errors”.

Note 3: The acronymic overload with the US WWII cloak'n'dagger government intelligence agency, Office of Strategic Services, could not be more semantically divergent.

Note 4: The Albanian Communist Party was unique in also attacking the Soviet Union, Red China and Cuba as traitors to the true Marxist-Leninist path to nirvana.
