ahh, yeah... i don't recall all of its processing quirks, though... sad since i
ran it for so many years... the seenby stripping on interzone echomail, i do
remember... that should be an option... toby is still around but i don't know
if he can set up the original development environment any more to fix the
bugs... i think RL has a firm grip on him, too...

And to this end they built themselves a stupendous super-computer which was
so amazingly intelligent that even before its data banks had been connected
up it had started from "I think therefore I am" and got as far as deducing
the existence of rice pudding and income tax before anyone managed to turn
it off.
