A week ago I was trying to printout the HyperTalk help section off my
Imagewriter II and Mac SE.  Because I have only one Mb of memory,
(and because of other problems) I was forced to run off one card per page 
(by hand, using Super Spool).

At two different points during this tedious process, when I told it
to "Print Card" I got a dialog box that said:  "Say 'Please'!" <OK> <Cancel>

Why did I get this message?  Is this some hidden joke by the Apple people
that I've discovered (or by Bill Atkinson), or is it a joke by the SuperMac
people?

Any info?
