Never mind, now it's as it used to be.
Must have been a glitch in the DNS.
Strange...

The Revolution has begun. The department has been taken over.
Comrade Shivers's helicopter will land on College Green at 3.14pm.
Deployment of the Underground begins soon thereafter. Lambda bandanas
will be available at the corner of Thayer and Waterman. Please remain
calm and nobody will get skewered on parentheses.

Oh, wait, sorry, that must have been a dream.

We seem to be having some virtual host problems. The domain is hosted
on the same server that administers www.cs.brown.edu, and the latter
is its default response, so when things go wrong, you get the Brown CS
home page content. I've notified our sys staff, and I expect it'll be
fixed asap.

Sorry about that.

Cmde. Shriram

3.14 *pm*, huh? Underground types (once so strong and
dynamic) seem to be getting rather soft and lazy
these days.

There's such a thing as being too eager, you know. You wouldn't want an
organization like the Underground to remain static, now, would you? That
might make them weak, and then they'd need a strict hand to recover the type
of discipline they're known for...

Maybe the plans have shouldn't have been finalized.
There is a lot of collective finger-pointing.

Hey, what's wrong with doing something as soon as you get out of bed?

Please, this is exceptionally short. I think it's elaboration time.

Damn, you caught me. But you raise an important point.

Perhaps, but this message may be read by people who, shall we say,
`don't exercise proper hygiene' and I don't want them to take anything
out of context.

Come on, get real. This imaginary non-hygienic audience of yours,
must for a number of complex reasons exists only in your memory.
I'll iterate: A statement like that, requires way more exactness of
the writer.

Too late. Goodbye, Mr. Marshall.

You're the one that's irrational. I have been continuously
misinterpreted by those that lack hygiene. Scoff if you must, but
being discrete now will pay off in the future with a dividend of some
magnitude.

Curse you! And curse you again! You have reduced me to expressions
of the most primitive type.
