Andy Warhol is alive and riding in the back of a Toyota Camry LE.

Oiy. So..., Microsoft is trying to convince The Pentagon to abandon its habit of using free software. Is this a joke?

No, you can't look at the code to see what it's *really* doing. You just have to trust us. No, we're not going to *tell* you how it works. No, you don't get to decide what you can and cannot do with it--we do. No, you can't just give some to your allies--*we* decide who your allies are, now. All your base are belong to us.

Microsoft *really* expects this to fly?

It'd be really nice to be able to attach arbitrary data to e-mail messages in my inbox. I mean, arbitrary data that wouldn't look like it was put there by whoever sent the message to me. I could just edit the message, adding headers, modifying things like the

{Subject:}# header..., but what keeps track of the difference

between what the header `really' is and what I added to it? I can put a `ooh! this is important flag on messages for different reasons, but the presence of the flag doesn't explain at all why I put it there....

Oh, yeah--I did dream, yesternight. Seth was there. He drove a truck. It was winter. I rode in the back of his truck. And there was someone, possibly with a red bandana, riding shotgun.

There was much snow. We went to someone's house, and I think that Seth initally took a wrong turn or something--we turned into a very snowy driveway, and then turned around and went back out, or maybe it was through..., and I could swear that I heard him say something like "blahblahblah, is this where his house is?", but then we went to some woman's house....

I think that she was blonde, with short-ish hair, and wore white-ish clothing. Maybe she had a light sweater-knit-type thing, with holes in it. Ehh. I can't remember, but it might have been that.

The house was big. I think that she had a couple of dog-type creature-things in it. Maybe they were dogs. Maybe they were those things that the tuscan raiders had in Star Wars Episode 2.0

There was ice, inside her house. There was a large stairway--wide and straight, with bannisters--just inside the front door. At the bottom of the stairway, there was an ice-puddle.

Hmm. Interesting that Guile prints (episide 2.) as (episode 2.0). I don't know what else I should (or could) have expected, though. Maybe (episode 2), seeing that 2.0 is an integer.... It should just drop the radix-point.

Oh, I think that I found Seth at, and we left from, some school.... Like, I was attending the school or something....

Well, it's time for to-night's dream-session.

My blankets have holes in them.... One of them has a really big hole in it....
