Actually, Rick Koz is the original and current Son of Svengoolie character. He's been on two or three different stations since the 70's I think, but it's the same guy.

Fogbugz/Kiln had a variation of this. You could easily see which branches a particular commit was in and it was tied back to the ticket as well. It didn't influence ticket state, but it was easily cross-referenceable.

The only question I have about this is _who is doing the thinking part of their coding_? Someone has to be working just a furiously architecting and concepting for all these programmers hammering out code for 14-16 hour days.

There's the rub. It's 40% more expensive to get the certified letter (which doesn't guarantee the issue will go away) than it is to just pay the ghost bill, get a receipt and it's guaranteed to be done.
