If you're wondering, what he did was writing a mixture of C code and random

And yes, AOL does suck, but it can still send mails... being a assimilated
Netscape browser... =P
And yes, it seems like his post was a GPF --- General Purpose Fault...
Or maybe he had had an urge to post a reply to this post:
