Prod contested by article creator. This is a completely unreferenced article on something that was made up one day. Additionally, the edit summary left when the prod was removed indicates that this user seeks to use this article as a means of promotion, which Wikipedia is not. &mdash; KuyaBriBri Talk 15:25, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
