I will produce 100P in SoB.
And I will start SETI BOINC and discover over 9 billion separate alien species.

It would be funny to have Dr. Anderson put out a press release saying we have made contact with an alien civilization. Then a few hours later follow up with the April Fool's Day Press Release! :)

ROFL!!! :D

Similar problems discovered today with the DPAD client.

Computers running DHEP reported to be growing legs, and some are even said to be "running"!

Find-a-Drug users found to be addicted to the program. :)

Oh, wait, that last one's true! :Q
