	Scuse me, you have a system at home capable of running UNIX,
	at least one VCR, cable, and you can't afford $20 per month
	for a dedicated uucp fone line?  Also, your kids can't be trusted
	not to call 900 numbers, but they are intelligent enough not to
	pick up the fone while you are uploading this drivel?
	Yeah.  Right.
