<sigh> The biggest thing I miss about living in RI was being able to
hang out with you crazy RCS/RI guys..."Hey look, this memory unit is
bigger than my first apartment, let's see if we can make it work!", or
my personal favorite "We have a 1200 baud connection running across
this fiber network...because we can.".
