This is a test of the emergency attention span system.  If this were a 
real emergency you probably wouldn't be logging in to check your mail, so 
its kinda pointless.  Still, its a great way to waste time and your tax 
dollars, so here we go.

Part one: The directions
   This part of the test is designed to see if you can read, and chew 
bubble gum at the same time.  Please begin chewing a stick of gum at this 
time, if you do not have a stick of gum, then simulate chewing gum by 
grinding your teeth together.
1> Please reply to the passage that follows in private E-Mail.
2> Reply only if you give a shit.
3> Blow a bubble.  If you are chewing simulated gum you can simulate 
   blowing a bubble by making a shhshhshh sound.
4> Reply to: trotter@bobcat.tamu-commerce.edu
5> Look at the guy next to you in the lab and tell him to mind his own 
   damn buisness.
6> There is no rule six.
7> If your name is Mike Loader, send me a copy of the imaginary chapter 9.

Part Two: The second part
   I've written another part of Wait, and a sort of sequal to Ice Age.  I 
was wondering if I should post all my other stories again, or just post 
those two?  I know I recently posted all my other stuff, and the ML 
crashed twice while I was doing it.  So I wanted to know what the general 
feeling on me crashing the list with my low grade drivel was before I 
blindly refused to listen to reason and posted it all again anyway bwahaha.

Part Three: That thingy that came after the second part
   Say Matt, why is this labeled test?  Well, I've always wanted to post 
a test message, but for years I've kept myself pure...I guess its mainly 
because my sence of humor is on a rampage and it seemed like a good idea 
at the time.
