One thing I wished I could find was one particular "Stop Bit" that I recall to this day. Among my favorite phrases was
> Hardware Salespeople catch rabbits, paint them gray, and sell them as desktop elephants.
I just found it on page 412 of the September, 1989. While searching for the author, Peter C. Olsen, I found that this has been transcribed (fittingly) and posted here. http://linuxmafia.com/pub/humour/hunting-an-elephant.html http://linuxmafia.com/pub/humour/hunting-an-elephant.html
Where you are Mr. Olsen, thank you so much for this insightful and entertaining commentary.
