Heheh. Heheheheh. Hehehehohohohohawhaw... <gasping>

One is reminded of the sweet simplicity of the relationship between
Trystero West, the Pony Express, and the USPS.

And of Slothrop's puzzlement, in the archives, at finding that
documentation on deals between ICI and IG Farben seemed to thin out in

Yessireee, being "taken over by the state" ought to bring plenty of
purifying sunshine into any dark doings by the nasty old Private Sector.
