Howdy, After they included a copy of "Microsoft Windows Services for 
UNIX 3.0" in a recent issue, I wrote the editor a letter asking what the 
hell they were thinking and if they had lost their collective mind.

The next issue, the mountain of mail and email caused them to respond, 
although not apologise.  The editor quoted my question about "lost your 
minds?"

Funny.
