A Master's Method for Subtly Surprising Broca - Williams' subtitle for his article.  Paul Broca  was a French anthropologist and surgeon most known for his discovery of the location in a human's brain where speech production takes place.  In his book, Secret Formulas of the Wizard of Ads, Williams postulates that Broca's area of the brain is where muscles used in speaking receives its stimuli.  He also contends that Broca's area is where a speaker arranges his words to be understood and the listner uses it to anticipate and discount the predictable.  Williams' reference, "refer to an unseen action," is an attempt to surprise Broca and create interest.

"I've had it with design," James said, grinding the soul of his Red Ball Jets into what was left of the book cover.

"James, dude, you're a content guy, not a designer.  Why are you torturing yourself man?  To save a couple of dollars?"  Tommy said, snuffing out the cigarette with the yellowed tips of his fingers.  Bob Beam over at Peers for Pressure met this chick, I think her name was Yolanda, at one of those cook-your-own-grub parties.  She was a handful man.  Anyhow, while she was shooting at the range, she told Beamer that she overheard this detective talking about Tubetorial ."

Ok, as for the detective, Dave is making full use of poetic license.  For full disclosure he admits that he heard about Tubetorial from Phil Gerbyshak, relationship master of Make it Great! .
