I know what I would do with my own supercomputer, I would donate it to the
University of Alaska, ANCHORAGE!! The crafty fellows over at the University
of Alaska, FAIRBANKS duped a goofy Alaskan senator to get them a
supercomputer. How?? The good senator believed that power could be easily
drawn from the Aurora Borealis!! Oil is simply not enough, it seems!! The
UAF folks said they would work hard on the project but needed a
supercomputer to get started... Those crafty devils got their computer and
later told the senator the project was not as possible as it had originally
seemed. lol

Now if only UAA could come up with a project that appealed to the good
senator in such a way that he could be taken for a ride TWICE! Cold
fusion?, magic physics?, or how about a supercomputer to hack into election
results and make sure he is re-elected despite his stupidity.

sincerely,

John Grigg
