I had an idea that might simplify things with all these other uses for CLUCOMP and CLULESS v(whatever).

  Said idea involves you and the other gweeps using your current, updated copy of CLULESS to rez up a grillion or so ( check with alt.fan.douglas-adams for the number of zeroes involved ) nanites programmed to seek out and erase all other copies of CLULESS from whatever medium they are found on and set them loose. }:)

   This should  remove this threat to people and (un)reality in general and make the world a safer place to live, work and enjoy r.a.a. from. #:^) 

   One final word tho', I wouldn't xhost them to reality in case you want to kill them later.  :)

  Does this have anything to do with the work of the Department of the Blindlingly Obvious, or is it from another source? /:)
