- I don't know if #hotsex by itself qualifies IRC as a hunk-o-dung,

- On a related topic, I spotted the first UIUC freshman I've seen this
- year on IRC today (the first day of classes here). He had made his

- Would there be any way to limit maximum time online per session for
- non-server opers in IRC-3? ;-)
