>>Yeah, I've clearly mellowed in the recent past - I just want them to go away now, preferably to die quietly in solitary pain and anguish. There's no need to impale their heads on stakes by the side of the road or hold public disembowellings, now matter how much fun it might be! ;-)

Did my undergrad work there; and finished my Masters at the ever-so-popular Attila the Hun School of Personnel Management. I've applied for a Fellowship at the Pol Pot School for Continuing Re-education.
