No. :)
But I did decided that I would rather see the whole FAQ make it or
not at all instead of having it possibly make it there in parts.

It's true. The sound is more reminiscent of a *THUD!* than a
*SPLUT!*, but at least we still get a comedy onomatopoeia out of it.

There is much to fear from the Floating Horse ...

Because it was needed and Erratic was willing to hand of the
maintenance of the FAQ to me.

Ewww. No, I was worried more about the horse itself plummeting. I'd
imagine those brollies Wile E. uses aren't a lot of good against
falling liquids, no matter what their composition.
OTOH, they're not much good against falling solid objects, either.
*looks up fear-filly* ;)
