- Eh? It's my religion of course! Do you really think I'd let it say that if I could
- get it to say "mnystrom@patriot.mit.edu"? I can't. And the people who run
- the computer aren't going to fix it either.. they don't even bother to reboot it
- when it's sick "because that means a lot of paperwork." If you can convince
- them to, go ahead. I can't even find them when I need to talk to them!
- Go get a life. If it still bothers you after that, come back and I'll K-line
- patriot and localhost, much as I'd hate to do that.
