The most promising >strategy seems to be to lie down in front of the dispenser, Nope: You were closer with the upper-half-of-the-room cleaning robot. It is possible to confuse the robot. Maybe if other items were in the air at the same time it might miss the fish.

May I suggest that (a) you collect every item that is not actually nailed down, and (b) you examine the pub VERY carefully. -- Michael Jenkin University of Toronto USENET: {decvax,ihnp4,allegra}!utcsri!utai!jenkin CSNET: jenkin@Toronto BELL: 416-978-7321
