Just emailed myself the Sanchez anathema (I wrote a program to "decapitalize" it this afternoon). For some reason, the paste seemed to die halfway through in the terminal, but upon "." and "quit" and downloading the email, the whole thing got sent. Then again, it stripped the http://www.militaryreporters.org/sanchez_101207.html line that I have at the top. <mumble><mumble><*mumble*><mumble> -- tinmimus99@hotmail.com smeeter 11 or maybe 12 mp 10 mhm 29x13 You want a job and a lizard to ride? < _The Einstein Intersection_
