makolb (Mark A. Kolb):
The door opened with a jerk and Finlayson and Sebold came in. Sebold
looked as spruce and nasty as ever, but Finlayson looked older, more
worn, mousier. He held a sheaf of papers in his hand. He sat down
across the desk from me and gave me a hard bleak stare.
"Guys like you get in a lot of trouble," Finlayson said sourly. Sebold
sat down against the wall and tilted his hat over his eyes and yawned
and looked at his new stainless-steel wrist watch.
"Trouble is my business," I said. "How else would I make a nickel?"

mar (Mark A. Rosenstein):
From the Scribe Version 6 release notes:
"If two words were separated only by a double hyphen (i.e., in a
simulation of an elongated dash--like this), and if they were the
first words on the second line of a page, the second word was lost."

rosencra (John R Buck):
My senses, better pleased with madness, bid it welcome.

How to tell when you have gone insane (since you asked):
You have gone insane exactly as soon as you stop wondering
whether you have gone insane.

Miffin, 1987.]
