You already made that point a few months ago. Do I have to re-send my
silly IBM selectric virus message? I realize it's re-run season, but
even Cheers (TM) is more interesting than this thread.

used to be *entertaining*, like Good Times (the virus, not the re-run,
although the re-run sure is dyn-o-mite).
