Cap'n Crunch, well!crunch) has been arrested on charges of counterfeiting $32 BART tickets (public transit), it looks like it may be awhile before we see another release of EGAD. BTW Draper got his nickname for using free whistles from boxes of Captain Crunch cereal for "phone phreaking" in the 70's (the whistles just happened to be the right frequency to fool the phone equipment) and was convicted in 1976 for this activity. EGAD is a great idea, sorry to see Draper unavailable for work on it, especially on such a ridiculous alleged activity. Doug Merritt ihnp4!hoptoad!mentat!doug, ucbvax!unisoft!certes!mentat!doug
