Hiya Linuxers,

I'm collecting Linux cookies: odd statements, warnings about pre-alpha
versions that wipe out your disk, literal translations from foreign languages,
whatever you think that is funny -- as long as it's Linux related. If you
have such cookies, please send them to me at karel@icce.rug.nl. I'll include
them in the archive. Submissions should state of course the cookie, and
_where_ you got it, that's relevant too. E.g., that could be the author of
some package, in that case add the author's name and the package name in your
submission.

If you wish to see a sample cookie (in fact, a random one from the archive),
telnet to bambix.icce.rug.nl at port 4002. You'll see just one from the list
(wyhich is now two cookies big).

Summarizing:

    - e-mail Linux cookies to "karel@icce.rug.nl"
    - "telnet bambix.icce.rug.nl 4002" to see one.

When you do send me some interesting statements, I probably won't reply to
each submission (unless of course I get about one each year). Don't worry
about it, I _will_ include your remarks once I get around doing it (unless
they are offensive, that kind of remarks'll go to /dev/null instantaneously).

Thazzal, thanks in advance.. keep the cookies rolling!
