   The chip doesn't blow up, it merely fails to execute the instructions, thus
   it won't run programs.  Most boxes have a "turbo" switch so you can first
   run it at a much lower speed.  Once you get a diagnostic program going, raise
   the speed and watch it either work or fail, possibly not even being able
   to report the errors.

Serves me right for using colloquialisms.  Yeah, the chip doesn't blow up
in the sense that it explodes, but you will blow it in the sense that it
isn't usable anymore.  Circuit paths on chips are not totally straight 
lines---they have wiggles in 'em and where the wiggles cause the cross
section to become narrow is the weak link.  Resistance is inversely
proportional to cross section, so where that circuit path becomes narrow,
the resistance is higher.  Higher resistance = higher heat.  Higher speed
at which chip is run = higher heat.  All that higher heat added together
can cause the atoms to achieve semi-fluidity, and in this semi-melted
state, they will migrate out to the wider cross section areas, leading to
an even smaller cross section, leading to higher resistance, leading to
higher heat, leading to more migration, until there is no more circuit
path and the chip is useless.

You may have it out with my Computer Architecture prof about the actual
cause if you will, but I have empirically witnessed the old chip whiff
many times myself.

This is one reason why it is important to ask dealers what the
*manufacturer's* rated speed on a chip is, since some of them will
do just what lasner suggested, and if the chip works, they will sell
it as rated at the higher speed.  Weak circuits are not always revealed
immediately this way---it might blow two weeks later.

To make this possible they would have had to:

1) Plant records of British merchant seaman that died of AIDS-like
symptoms in a Liverpool hospital and UK record offices. Probably also
in shipping company files, which happen to show he often travelled to
African ports.

2) Plant contaminated blood samples purporting to be from said seaman
in hospital's storage freezers.

3) Plant or bribe doctors and nurses who claimed to have treated said
seaman.

4) Plant or bribe other people to claim to be relatives/colleagues/friend
of dead seaman.

     I have been led to believe that electors are chosen by their
financial/other loyalty to a given political party.  As a reward for
"faithful service," they get to be electors.  This information comes
from one of my professors, who has the unfortunate tendency to tell
urban legends as truth.  ("Trademarks for pot" & "Eskimo words for
snow" so far.)

All safety and legal nonsense aside, I always found it hilarious
when freshmen would get the same "brilliant" ideas year after year
after year.  In addition to the penny-thing, there was "let's
fill a room with newspaper," "let's order pizzas for people and
not tell them," the shaving cream on the phone bit, etc.  There
must be a book of these that they give people during orientation.

They pick on him because he's from Texas.  

I actually haven't been keeping count, but it seems to me that the fact 
he's from Texas has been mentioned by the RHIT folks as much as the fact 
that his _family_ (not him) is from Pakistan.  I assumed everyone was
picking on him because of that. 

Of course, some posters who are responding to all this keeps trying to play
up the fact that his parents are from Pakistan and therefore falsly turn 
when there really isn't one.

My friend pulled this at SUNY@Alfred. He pulled a twist though. He used a 
carpenters hammer to pry the gap larger, THEN he stuffed in pennies. He did
this at the top and bottom of the door. The next day the RA and the rest of
the staff COULD NOT open the door. He says it was bowed from the force. (solid
wood door.) So the RA asks my friend if he can help, since it is well known 
that he has many and varied tools. He gets his hammer, pop, the door is open.

He got the floor jerk, so the rest of the floor thought it was terrific.

So I take it you're Captain America or something, is that it? I'm irish and

It is called Swoon by Tom Kalin.
It is currently showing at art theatres and gay film festivals,

    To people who are having a cow: 
    (i.e. ted frank, etc.)

		Ok, let's back up a bit.  This thing seems to have taken 
	on a life of its own.  I will recap what has occurred on this newsgroup
	in the last 5 weeks.  I posted a story about Omar.  It was a very funny
	story about how he forgot to log off the vax and we convinced him that
	that a walkman could make a VT220 terminal log out.  If you haven't
	read this, I will send you a copy since that is what started all the 
	confusion. 
	
		Anyway, since I had never really written anything before,
	I asked for feedback on the story.  I got great volumes of positive
	e-mail in response.  Tons of people wanted to hear more of Omar.
	So, I posted the few stories that you didn't have to observe or be
	involved in to appreciate.  I even posted things that I didn't think
	were very funny.  And still they wanted more.  I found Omar's .plan.
	I posted that.  I found his bio (which, in case anyone was wondering,
	states explicity that anyone can have a copy).  Some bored people,
	(I know they were bored because they told me.) ran his bio through a
	jive filter and posted the result.  

		I am not a racist.  I believe that racial jokes are not racist.
	In order for something to be racist, it has to contain malice of some
	form and the jive filter is certainly not malicious.  I, nor anyone
	I have seen posting on here has made fun of Omar's Pakistani heritage.
	There were some jokes made about the fact that Omar doesn't understand
	everything that is said but can I help it if I find buffalo hair funny?
	Funny is funny and I don't particularly think that I should comtemplate
	the moral implications of every single thing that strikes me as
	humorous.  If I did, then I probably wouldn't think it was funny 
	anymore.

		In the words of some wise person on the net: Lighten up.

No, Frank. Life on the net is a waste of time (and doesn't get your
law degree finished, I might add).

You are starting to sound like some of the crank posters on soc.culture--
who, incidentally, post in from UChi. As in, all they do is incite flame
wars and post 10+ posts at once. 

Don't bother emailing this, Frank, this is my last post on the subject,
I refuse to waste further time in this discussion. My dissertation can't

I got the word from a Resident Assistant whom I know and is of sound

this is indeed a real rule and is in fact enforced.  

What I am curious about is: are you planning on A) Giving your

RA's are a rung below graduate students on the evolutionary scale.
Probably this RA was told the same tales when they came to the University,
and never distinguished it from hardcore documented policy.

Show me a documented policy, or a first hand account of it ever happening.

Okay, that's it!

If there's any more babble about this I will run Omar's Bio through
valspeak and post it. This nifty little program converts it into
valley girl speech. We also have BORGspeak and PCspeak, which
convert it into Borgish (DO NOT FLAME ME. YOU WILL BE ASSIMILATED), 
and Political Correctness speech. T

This is alt.folklore.collge. Please post a.f.u stuff to a.f.u. and
keep everything else off.

Thank you.
