  In the 'Boy, ain't that a bite' dept:

  My hp48 was stolen last night, before today's chemistry final!  I took it
    with a TI calculator, and flailed for like 20 minutes on one 
    calculation because I couldn't figure out how to use the damn thing!

  I'm just an RPN cripple, I guess - I don't think I've owned a non-HP
    calculator for 5 or 6 years.

  The big irony:  do you think the reject who stole it will have the 
    slightest concept of how to use it?  If they could add 2 + 2 on the 
    thing I'd gladly give it to them.  Somebody'll probably hock it for
    20 bucks or so and buy a bag of weed or something.  Oh well.

  (In case you haven't guessed, updates of the terminal program I posted
    a while back will be a *little* delayed)

                                              Bill.
