Would you care to file a proper bug report?

I wouldn't know where to file it. :-)

Every press release I've ever read is the same:

"[company name] is proud to announce blah blah blah..."

After a few seconds I realize that my attention has drifted, so I start over, but a few second later I'm back to "blah blah blah."

Since press releases are so much the same, I wonder if one couldn't come up with a heuristic algorithm to filter out all the crap. For example, one would a PR as input, the the program would output something like "Sun releases Java SE, ME, and EE under the GPL, version 2."
