Screw Pluribus: Unum

Ace seems kind of worried about Einstein, the shiny new data omnivore soon to be devouring an email box all too near you.

First of all, not having seen line #1 of the code, I’d like to start the rumor that this is all stuff that once found Admiral Poindexter in shoal water with no way on. SWO joke.
Second of all, increasing the noise-to-signal ratio is a fine response to the notion that this Federal government to which power was delegated somehow owns us. As this post is an emacs composition, I’ll just drop in another output from spook function:

The Founding Fathers said: E PLURIBUS UNUM. Progressivism says “Screw Pluribus: Unum”.

    Hooray for Emacs!

    Emacs has been my editor of choice since November 1988– and what a long strange trip it’s been. Emacs used to be the standard for a large program– but now my Firefox is, no joke, *fifty times* bigger than my emacs. (1048M virtual, 648M physical for Firefox, 21188K virtual, 11664K physical for emacs.)

    Now if you told me you used mh (or nmh) to read your mail, I’d *know* we were separated at geek-birth or something…

    @Finrod,
    Now, I had used Gnus for a while, but I drifted into Gmail.

    We need to start adding Einstein-appropriate signatures to our e-mails, whether the Declaration of Independence or a simple “F*** Barack Obama right in the (orifice of your choice, I don’t judge)”

    See how much fun he has reading the daily summaries.

    Heh, I started out with rn (like everyone in the 1980s) but I switched to gnus to read Usenet; then I kind of fell out of reading Usenet in the mid-90s.

    I still use M-x mh-rmail to read my mail, though.
