    Boy, I learned a lesson on this one... When you know an answer, don't get caught up making references to Danny Phantom, even if it is season-appropriate, because seeing three answers roll in kinda makes it irrelevant. Nice puzzle, though. I'll have to start using the term pitchdork. – raisinghellyer Oct 30 '15 at 19:08
