If I am in a hovercraft going fifty miles an hour heading east from Chicago, and you are in an autogyro going thirty miles an hour heading south from San Antonio, and each vehicle consumes five gallons of gasoline per fathom, and each vehicle releases five pounds of ballast per minute, then how is it that they get the three different kinds of toothpaste all squished up in the tube? And why do bad things happen to good people, anyway?

I'll give you a clue about getting the toothpaste in the tube.

It involes a series of very special bowel movements.

Shhh.... Space Moose, be quiet! That information is "need to know".

Bad things? What do you know about bad things? Have you ever been fried in
your own grease, buddy?
Fuchsia of the Melnorme
That's a very good question, with an interesting answer. And it will only cost
you 300,000 of your dollars to access that information!

We may think that bad things happen to good people, but this is the will of the
universe! Therefore, the people were never really good to begin with.
Do not be sad for them, rathar rejoice, my friend, because you are witness to
the cosmic forces.

And by the way, we're not "neural nets" or any other such bit of computer flim
flamery. We're a collection of various fictional, extra-dimensional, imaginary
