Pretty funny stuff Brian. I remember using that code tons when I was a kid. One site that your link didn't mention was ESPN.com. It was discovered a few weeks ago by the guys at kotaku.com There's a link to the story here: http://www.850thebuzz.com/blog/?p=9373

It was fixed as soon as it was discovered, but there are still a few pages that haven't been discovered yet by their coders. Funny stuff!
