A great big spanking thanks to Jess Nevins, whom I accidentally left off of my
previously posted thanks list!
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
this list was originally taken from the FAQ compiled by Rich Kulawiec
(R...@gynko.circ.upenn.edu), appended from a list edited by Jess Nevins
(jne...@bgsuvax.bgsu.edu) , greatly added to from a list of "catch phrases"
compiled by Mark Odell (mode...@shakala.com), which began with Cliff
Chaput's (?) list. And, of course, was added to through mail to me and
posts to the newsgroups by the people listed at the end. So, with as much
work that went into this from so many different sources, it's hopefully as
comprehensive as we've seen so far. But, of course, it cannot be
"complete." So, if you'd like to contribute, please Mail me at:
v131...@ubvms.cc.buffalo.edu (yes, I know it's illogical! :)
This is a list of references, and index of things that Joike/bots have
said that refer to another original source. So, in this context, it contains
what was said on MST, not particularly what was said in the original work.
(Ex.- if someone says: 'hey, it's Edward R. Merle!' they are not refering to
a person saying this, but to the subject itself)
The items shown with a "?" after the source, means that we're not entirely
sure that this was the source, but it has been the concensus.
Listings with (?Help!) means that I'm pretty sure that this is a
reference, but am not cetain of the source. So, please, read through, and
if you can help out at all, please mail (not spam) and lend a hand!
Think about it, won't you? Thank you. Enjoy.
