I see you have found others who seem to appreciate your kookiness as much as I
do. I will leave you to continue enjoying their company now.
Oh and by the way: Nobody at Purdue had ever heard of you. Though that isn't
really surprising now, is it? Even so, I have it on good authority that quite a
few Boilermakers have been chuckling at the antics of their most distinguished
alumnus. Keep up the good work.
Yours in Sardonic Amusement,

I don't know about you, but the current form of communism is very
corrupt in its current concept. Karl Marx was a corporation hater.
I've read all he had written and I'm convinced that he was no different
that little johny getting jealous because little jimmy got a bigger
piece of pie than he did. How anyone could support Stalins' view point
I don't understand, as ol' Uncle Joe has killed more of his own people
than Hitlers' regime did. (The number is approaching between 50 to 63
million people during his time). IMO communism is hive thinking.

I'm a rebel. Immediately after installing a fresh SuSE 7.1 I downloaded
all the current KDE 2.1 RPMs and install them with:
rpm -U --force --nodeps *.rpm
and everything is working great. Don't try this at home, though. Leave
it to the pros.
