I think the real dodos are the ones that have to have "Idiot lines" put
in for them. I mean this is *Purdue* where *students* get to write
messages to the net, and I haven't seen a student yet that didn't know
where his message went. I mean I have never seen any messages to the net
from here with the body of the message between the subject and path
lines. It just seemed to be assumed the the "body" of the message
followed the "header" of the message. Does this make sense to you?
