I *so* wish that I had a copy of the memo.

Which memo?

The memo from Frank Berleth, the CSR at 18-8801.  The one that told all
the Computer Center and ECD managers to put root passwords on their
Xenix boxes so I didn't screw them up.

Mentioned me by name, you understand.  I was very proud of that, when I
heard.

I screwed up 8813's 16, though I don't remember how, and Frank had to
rebuild it.  :-)
