Well, what month did Bill Whitson start this mailing list? I've been
using "politically incorrect" quotes in my signature since long before
that, being extremely libertarian in my philosophy.

If you want a collection of my sigs in Linux fortune format, those I
have used, will use, thought were _too_ extreme (not many) or thought
of using, send me email -- I need an excuse to actually put these
things in order anyway.

Oh, the keywords being "mass-produced" as in the way Eli Whitney
invented for rifles and Henry Ford improved for automobiles, and
"mass-marketed" as in advertised to the public at large, the answer
IMAO (life is too short to have humble opinions) is the TRS-80
Model 16 with Xenix.

When I was crossing the border into Canada, they asked me if I had any
firearms with me.  I said "Well, what do you need?"  --  Steven Wright
