Right on Raif!  To whom it may concern: My name is Geoffrey Kimbrough, and
I am no relation to this "Geoffrey Kim".  I object strenously to this
stereotyping, especially when the casual net.reader might erroneously
attribute it to me!  I try very hard to be non-racist, non-sexist,
non-ageist (and trustworthy, clean, reverent, brave... 8^) ), and my
terminal would explode if I tried to post anything like the cited message.

     If I can be of any help, you're in worse trouble than I thought.
