Post #184,380 by ben_tilly 11/17/04 10:40:14 PM Reply	That reminds me of something I was at the museum of computer history with a friend. When we came to the PDP-10s he commented that he programmed on a PDP-10. A discussion ensued about where and when he did so. It turned out that the PDP-10 in the museum was one of the ones that he had programmed on!

Post #184,511 by ben_tilly 11/19/04 10:48:58 AM Reply	Hint: Clairol is only clear in ads I'm just trying to give you clarity on how to clear things up. But if you're blond enough already, this comment will make no sense. (And maybe if you're not blond as well.) Question: Why do women dye their hair blonde? Answer: They may be blonde, but it makes men act blonde!
