Yet Another Strange Error Message....

	We have several version of Basic here at Dartmouth,
with new ones showing up from time to time. The old favorite,
Basic7, was a nice structured Basic. (If such things are
possible.) But, it did have a few irregularities, one of the
most amusing having to do with nesting subroutines. If you
neseted them too deep, I think beyond two levels though I
am not really sure, it would print out a long explaination
of the problem, followed by the line:

	Don't Hit Me!!!!

	Due to political pressures, the error messages would
come and go, but they always were amusing.
