C'mon, this is starting to look like net.flames!  I worked for Big Blue, and
highly resent not the joke, but the sentiment behind it.  And I thought
Canadians were polite, nice people...

Obligatory joke:

IBM = International Big Mother
    = International Brotherhood of Magicians
    = Institute of Black Magic


DEC = Delayed Error Correction
    = Data Electronically Corrupted

The above opinions aren't necessarily those of etc, etc...but they
should be!!
