This is Soltek.  I am disguised as a mild mannered technician but I assure
you that I am one of the space people.  I, Soltek, do not wish to frighten
the people of earth but you must listen to me.  You must send me all of
your money.  I need the money to pay the U.S. Navy to repair my spacecraft.
I must return to the Survey soon.  If I do not, I may lose my seniority
and pension.  I don't want to wind up on Celestial Security.  I can sense
from your thoughts that you need proof that I am actually Soltek.  Well, I
just read your mind.  What more proof do you need.  Contact me and I shall
tell you where to send the money.  Remember, Soltek needs your help to
return to the space people.  End of transmission.

nah...  that's probably just his offense + bombing ratios on a netrek server.

If you can figure out how some of the netrek stats are computed, quantum
physics should be no problem for you.

Keeping the running total irrational is a bit of a trick, though.

Actually, I was outlining "Spot's Second First Christmas" on the train

If I have time tomorrow I'll type in one of the short stories I did
