I for one will second the motion, though I'm not sure if we could actually
call for a vote.  I don't really think that a forum on tcp-ip is the place
to attack it.  I'm here because I use tcp-ip (the fact that I like it is
beside the point), and having to wade through language that only a supreme
court justice enjoys is a drag.

P.S.

SNOBOL is probably the best choice for communications, considering the
rate this is expanding at...

Merton, are the waitresses at Westlake Jack's still as awsome as they used
to be?
