Oh, I can just see it... (those of you without ARPAnet experience
might not understand (oh well))...

Subject: Plan file

It has been brought to my attention that you have left a suicide note
in your plan file (GUEST4;UNCOLA PLAN) on MIT's computer system.  This
is not a valid use of the ARPANet!  I need not remind you that the
ARPANet is funded by DCA for use by official DoD projects only.  By
your frivolous abuse, you risk MIT's status as a valid ARPANet user.
Don't think we won't take MIT off the net if abuses continue, we will!

In addition, the added traffic on the net that is occuring as morbid
young hackers all over the country read your plan file is interfering
with more important and officially sanctioned traffic.

If you're really serious about suicide, join the army.  I did.

Major Mike Parker, DCA
