1) The posting (as it was received here) had no "root" in the From
   line, and as more people start owning/using workstations and 
   386 unix boxes, root really is quite meaningless as an indication
   of authority (or just about anything).

2) The University of the Pacific forbids the use of "stuff" on any
   of its computers (it is grounds for account termination).  Nick
   is a student of UoP and should know this.

3) Do not mail "stuff" programs to anyone you do not know.  The
   program is dangerous only because many sites have not taken
   the proper precautions.
