(if any) Also, hiding and disguising the :-) in the subject line is not the best way to inform people that the article is a joke. I have seen enough articles like the first one which are serious, so don't talk to me about sarcastic tone. The only thing I shouldn't have done is comment on control-X to rotate jokes. This was due to my ignorance of 'rn' which we don't have. -- -- Kevin Chu -- !{ucbvax,lll-crg,dual}!ucdavis!vega!ccs020 -- ucdavis!vega!ccs020@ucb-vax.arpa
