No, no, you silly person -- my recent hardware problems were
caused because I foolishly put 2.0.5 on one of my machines and
it snuck an EEEVIL hardware virus onto the ethernet, thus eating
up precious electronic fluids and starving the poor server.
I have since remedied that problem by exiling the offending
machine to caltech, and am waiting for the malicious hackery to
bring down the entire backbone.
