Mr Moderator,

	Hello again.  You were interested in any information about a 
Project Odin and 'Magic Carpet'.  Look no further than across Lake
Wahington to your dear E-Mail friends here at BBN.  In addition to the
previous two efforts, we are now engaged in '73 Easting' which is the 
historically accurate recreation of a key battle of the Gulf war in 
which a much outnumbered but technologically superior US force took on
a much larger Iraqi Republican Guard force who were advancing to the 
rear.

Dan

Yeah, its almost as bad as the exasperation I feel when reading
some ivory tower edicts.
