I just wanted to point out the 37-312 is NOT an IS&T cluster; it's an OEIT 
cluster, and I have explicit permission from them to run Debathena on the 
machines for the week. I really don't appreciate having you interfere with 
our reservation by telling users to manipulate the hardware, because it 
just creates more work for us.
