First, copy him to a file on your PC, give it a name like NERD.IO. Make him into an ARC file (NERD.ARC). Use PKARC instead of ARC because it will squash him (ever so much more satisfying than mere crunching). Plus the flames from irate net users who only have ARC will make him more crispy. Upload the ARC file your *nix box, UUENCODE it, and name the resulting file NERD.UUE. Finally, post your squashed and encoded I/O to the following groups: comp.sys.ibm.pc comp.binaries.ibm.pc comp.binaries.atari.st comp.binaries.amiga comp.binaries.mac and any others you think appropriate. Oh, and be sure to do all this under your I/O's account, so when the hate mail pours in, your I/O and not you will be the target. Seeing your I/O get squashed, encoded, and flamed in this manner should be most gratifying. -- Mark Alexander (UUCP: amdahl!drivax!alexande) "Bob-ism: the Faith that changes to meet YOUR needs." --Bob
