I've seen this program, and I'm not impressed. It doesn't follow the
standard MAC user interface, and doesn't do things that you really have
to be able to do with such a program. For example, you cannot print out
the data. Stupid, no? My next door neighbor was using this program for
a class, and she needed a printout of the data. She called me over, and
the only way I could do it was to do screen dumps. It can print graphs,
but not the actual data.

This is a test of the emergency signature system. Were this an actual
signature, you would see amusing mottos, disclaimers, a zillion net
addresses, or edifying philisophical statements. This is only a test.
