Sorry, thats:
	 NAK=Oh, Kermie!

My own protocols I'm putting into DCOM PRODOS:

The Church Lady Protocol  (With apologies to Saturday Night Live.)

	NAK= That was such a nasty block!  What made you send that?  Well, I
		might have an idea... No, that's not him... Oh, I don't know,
		maybe, perhaps, SATAN?
	ACK= Oh, I see that some of us think it's ok to send a packet when
		it's CONVIENENT...  Isn't that SPECIAL.
	EOT= It's time for my special dance.  HIT IT PEARL!

The IBM protocol:

	NAK=	The packet did not arrive after the 4.33 micro second
		time period that I was waiting for it.  Please submit form
		3-40-94.39 to you system administrator and place a call to
		IBM service at 1-800-BAD-INFO.  Please send the NAK2 packet
		indicating your acceptance of this NAK.

	ACK=    The packet #493.32 arrived after a brief but fulfilling 2.2
		microsecond pause.  Please acknowlege this message by sending
		ACK2 (IBM Part number 43A.9) indicating you recieved the
		initial ACK and agree with its contents.

	NAK2=	Please send NAK3 for confirmation
	ACK2=	Please send ACK3 for confirmation
	NAK3=   Please resend NAK2 just to make sure.
	ACK3=	ABEND 43. DXOEY-NODE N1ETSO/TSO/MVS=FAILED

The Ronald Reagan Protocol:
	NAK= 	Resend that, I was sleeping.
	ACK=	Was that a packet?  I don't remember.
	EOT=	Nancy, what was that?

.signature?  You gotta be kidding... (If these were funny, I'd do it!)
