This is, of course, entirely non-operational in content, so I'd like
to take this moment to remind the list of the presence of:

	nanog-offtopic@lists.blank.org

Send email to nanog-offtopic-subscribe@lists.blank.org to be added to
the list.  Only you can prevent endless non-operational digressions on
nanog@merit.edu!
