New enough, long enough, hook is somewhat interesting (although something about the hijacking would probably be more interesting). Article is well referenced, no close paraphrasing found. Good to go! — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:39, 3 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks. I played around with a hook on the hijacking, but didn't succeed in creating something which was pithy - the question format doesn't work well for this kind of thing, for some reason. Nick-D (talk) 08:53, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
