	This is fabulous.  It's going in my quotes file.  Of course
	there are other passwords with root privileges like 
	"drug lord".

	Very much so.  And now that the USSR is finished and the
	parallel government consisting of our national security
	apparatus has idle hands I fully expect a full court press
	against the remainder of our constitutional freedoms.  Fortunately, 
	I don't	think they realize how dangerous the existence of so many
	faxs, computers, modems, and cellular phones to any
	attempt to clamp down.
