	This reminds me of something i saw many years ago on one of
those aynomonous pieces of paper that float through the corridors of
commerce and academia (e.g. Ladle Rat Rotten Hut, Pretty Poly Nomial,
etc.) This one was headed something like 'Undocumented op-codes for
the System 360' and listed a dozen or so mnemonics with expansions. A
few that I remember were:

RCAE - Read card and eat	(I said this was a long time ago!)

WLAS - Write line and smear

HCF  - Halt and catch fire

and my favorite,

TDLF - Throw disk like frisbee

Does anyone have a copy of the complete list? Any additions?

NOTE:
	In a probably vain attempt to head off YAYAM (Yet Another Yet
Another Monster) I hereby offer to collect and summarize any responses
sent to me by mail.
