computer magazine called Computer Connections (May '99). (the sbutitles are mine.) WARNING: The Pursuit of Higher Education Can Be Hazardous To Your Health "A psychology student in N.Y. rented out her spare room to a carpenter in order to nag him constantly and study his reactions. After weeks of needling, he snapped & beat her repeatedly with an axe, leaving her mentally retarded." [Guess she won't be needing that M.A. after all...] .................................................................................. The Case for Increased Funding for Public Education about New Technologies "A woman came home to find her husband in the kitchen, shaking frantically with what looked like a wire running from his waist to an electric kettle. Intending to jolt him away from the deadly current, she whacked him with a handy plank of wood from the back porch, breaking his arm in two places. Up until that moment, the husband had been happily listening to his Walkman." [See what happens when old folks try to get their groove on?] .................................................................................. But Were They Blindswine? "Two animal-rights activists were protesting the cruelty of sending pigs to a slaughterhouse in Bonn, Germany when suddenly the pigs, all 2000 of them, escaped through a broken fence & stampeded, trampling the protesters to death." ..........................................................................
