You should NEVER leave these lines in on a production server. Should
something untoward happen (i.e. database crash), the error messages can
easily expose information you don't wish to be public.
Additionally, I can always tell a sloppy programmer when I get default
messages like this. Good programmers detect and handle errors,
providing meaningful messages to users.
