	Well, now it's my turn to vent my anger at some anonymous
low-life. I was wandering through the common area and saw a new
issue of "Machine Design". "Hmmm", I thought to myself, "I haven't
gotten my copy of that issue yet". Imagine my surprise on picking it
up to discover it _was_ my copy. No only that, but the person who
presumably took it from my mailbox (and didn't bother to return it
there) also folded over a few pages, and tore out at least one more.
I might think those were shipping damages, but the note:

	Sherry
	415-838-0184
	___________
	Find Devsys

was almost certainly not put there by the publisher or the post office.
I am glad to share my magazines and if asked will put you (whoever you are,
yes still) on my informal "distribution list", but I would like an apology
and if I catch someone doing this again (_after_ Christmas, when I'm in a
worse mood) I'll rip your lungs out, hear?

				Mike

P.S. I toyed with the idea of petty little things like calling Sherry
and finding out who she knows at Atari, or leaving out the number so
you'd have to see me, but hey, I'm normally a decent guy :-)
