Thought y'all might enjoy this!

From the higher educational institution at Northland College via Craig
Shanks comes this solution to the up coming problem:
Because of heightened concern over Y2K problems and increased demand on
our
IS. Department, we have determined that there is no longer any need for
network or software applications support (see below). The goal is to
remove
all computers from the desktop by December 1999, thus avoiding the
anticipated Y2K problem. Instead, all employees will be provided with an
Etch-A-Sketch.
This provides three distinct advantages:
1. No Y2K problems
2. No technical glitches to prevent goals from being accomplished
3. No more wasted time reading and writing e-mails
4. Everybody gets the same advanced model
In anticipation of the changeover, the following is a list of frequently
asked questions regarding Etch-A-Sketch Technical Support:
Q: My Etch-A-Sketch has all of these funny little lines all over the
screen.
A: Pick it up and shake it.
Q: How do I turn off my Etch-A-Sketch?
A: Pick it up and shake it.
Q: What's the shortcut for Undo?
A: Pick it up and shake it.
Q: How do I create a New Document Window?
A: Pick it up and shake it.
Q: How do I set the background and foreground to the same color?
A: Pick it up and shake it.
Q: What is the proper procedure for rebooting my Etch-A-Sketch?
A: Pick it up and shake it.
Q: How do I delete a document on my Etch-A-Sketch?
A: Pick it up and shake it.
Q: How do I save my Etch-A-Sketch document?
A: Don't shake it.
Thank you for your support.
