Postings seem to be about a quasi-religious/satirical/illuminati group called "the cult of the subgenius". Anybody know anything about this bizarre notesfile? Is it a joke? _____________________________________________________________________________ | Chris Clark Let's get one thing straight: the policeman | | clark@uicsl.csl.uiuc.edu is not here to cause disorder.
