Which is humorous in part because of the context (all those MIT hackers having put in the effort to develop their very own machine). What I am looking for is quotations, potentially humourous or relevant, for a mildly large user database system I will be writing next semester. So, mail me all your favorite quotations or sources for quotations, and I will 1. be indebted to you 2. summarize to the net 3. never dig out from under my mailbox again shar+enjoy, Qux the Barbarian Kaufman@Yale.Arpa Kaufman@YaleCS.Bitnet ..!decvax!yale!kaufman
