The comment in the article was "…email about that 'thing'". I would immediately think "what thing?", then everything else goes down the drain.

"Did you see my email about thing?" is going to get a prompt no from me. "What's 3*9" is going to get you about 30 seconds of huhs and hold-ons before I realize it's an unimportant question (at which point it's too late to recover).
