02/06/1997
sorry, this tripped my ky00t meter:
> The following poem appeared recently in INFOCUS magazine.
> The original authors were Fred Bremmer and Steve Kroese
> of Calvin College & Seminary of Grand Rapids, MI.
>
> A poll conducted among INFOCUS readers had established
> "waka" as the proper pronunciation for the angle-bracket
> characters <> and , though some readers held out
> resolutely for "norkies."
>
> The text of the poem follows:
>
> <> !*''#
> ^"`$$-
> !*=@$_
> %*<> ~#4
> &[]../
> |{,,SYSTEM HALTED
>
> The poem can only be appreciated by reading it aloud, to wit:
>
> Waka waka bang splat tick tick hash,
> Caret quote back-tick dollar dollar dash,
> Bang splat equal at dollar under-score,
> Percent splat waka waka tilde number four,
> Ampersand bracket bracket dot dot slash,
> Vertical-bar curly-bracket comma comma CRASH.
