  Well...*your* chest thumping is lame.  Three of my five Cray
supercomputers are in my house, and the first supercomputer I touched
was one I helped to construct from the component level.  This means
you lose.  Thanks for playing.

  Further...The fact that George even knows what an RL02 *is* means he
knows more about computer architecture than you'll ever be able to
understand.

  Child.

  Though I must thank you for giving me a fine target for venting some
of my pent-up frustrations. :-)

  Man oh MAN I'm an arrogant ass today.  I DARE you to have a nicer day
