And you certainly would not think it funny if suddenly a ten-linear-foot
set of orange VAX/VMS 4.7 manuals appeared in your living room along
with a very startled cat, just because some doofus hooked the cable

printer, opening a singularity.

When *will* these guys learn to read the manuals first?
