A Mr. Speedy D. has sent me a rude inquiry concerning the Peitgen tapes.
As Mr. Speedy D.'s return address is non-functional, I must reply to his
enquiry via the entire network, in the style established by his naughty
grammo.  Mr. Speedy D. asks me whether he might defy the procedure
for obtaining the Peitgen tapes, sending me a large sum of money to purchase
shipping materials for him.  Mr. Speedy D. should be informed that the answer
is "no."  I am not Mr. Speedy D.'s student worker.  If Mr. Speedy D. is
not content with the present arrangements, he is welcome to figure out
something better and do the work--for free--himself.  If Mr. Speedy D. is
representative of the FRAC-L community, why, then, we can take a plebiscite
as to whether or not the Peitgen tape proejct should continue.  --  KLC.
