BTW, in case anyone's offended by my use of `crap' (tough!), you can
assuage your sensibilities by considering `crap' to be an acronym:

     Completely
     Random
     Address
     Pointer

One (of many) "hobbies" of mine is deriving or conjuring acronyms; something
to do while shaving, driving, waiting for my 11-months-late developer
paperwork (Lauren?), etc., and I thought you might enjoy this one I developed
when I (finally!) purchased a telephone answering machine (which I call
"Communication by PROXY"): PROXY:

     Personal
     Remotely
     Operated
    eXtension of
     Yourself


Quickly discovered that one does NOT want to use the Translator/Narrator
to produce the answering message (unless one is trying to "put off" bill
collectors, the IRS, etc. :-)

Sheesh; my ol' Votrax SC-01 chip (with Votrax software) sounds better than
the Amiga.  Perhaps someone should license that stuff and port it to the
Amiga?
