Very nice, Greg.  A good April Fool's Day parody of your usual
misinformed hysteria about STARS.  A bit overdone toward the
end, though.  I thought you could have at least mentioned Loral
as a hint that you really knew about the sale.

I thought we'd managed to keep the $72 million that we spent 
on the vi-like systems editor secret.  Hope you never find out
that we wrote it in PL/S.
