Uh, Pavel, I'm sending a couple of guys in white coats
over there right now. Don't be alarmed when they show
up. They are going to fix this computer for you.

I try to keep a book around, but I'm always feeling
sorry for the students (Do you see what they pay for

copy cheaply. The only problem with this system is the
marginalia. Notes like "Who wrote this nonsense!?"
and "What a jerk!" does not inspire great confidence. :-(
