Apparently someone found one of my Usenet posts funny enough to post it to alt.humor.best-of-usenet, including a couple of headers that you don't normally see there. I thought that most people would be perplexed by it, and maybe there would be a few people who would find it mildly funny.

Congratulations!
How do you know that that hexadecimal integer is illegal?

Technically the number itself isn't illegal, but providing it (http://www.chillingeffects.org/notice.cgi?sID=3218) (posting to Usenet) is considered a "circumvention offering" which is illegal (according to the AACS-LA).

Eek! I clicked on your entry to comment and it took me to a page that is essentially unreadable on my monitor here in a brighly lit office: dark gray text on a black background. The blue and red links look kind of cool, but.... could if you want people to be able to read this you might want to consider a paler shade of gray. Just sayin'.

Ouch. Now i forgot what I wanted to say. So long.
