Oh joy! Master are you still alive? Goodness gracious! I almost wrote you
off!...I know, I know,...shame on me!... I had this theory worked out
where, due to the speed of you FreeBSD computer, you were able to achieve
light speed and were able to either, leap way into the future or way into
the past, depending which theory you buy. I see that you came out of warp
to join us, once again! Goodie! I have this mental image of you looking
just like that professor (mad or otherwise) from the movie "Back To The
Future"...:)
  So, tell me... How are things in the future? Is everyone in the future
able to speed up their computers just by yelling at them, the magic spell
" Run you computer faster|with FreeBSD!"?..."Abracadabra!" does not work
anymore?

A humbled (and overjoyed),

Candide
