[DEATH TO THE CLIMAX] Omen Website

[ekd99 at hampshire.edu]

last i heard from matthew he had not gotten moveable type installed on bork, 
but he says a lot of things about comptuers and stuff and my eyes kind of glaze 
over and so i don't know.

I've found a lot of people out here in lurvly Seattle interested in the Omen 
and the idea of the Omen.  Unfortunatly the only thing I've had to show them 
about it is the old old old website from back back in the day.  Which actually 
isn't that bad of a website, especailly for the time period it's from.  Don't 
ever let them delete that, as it's pretty entertaining.  But yeah, jsut saying 
the website is valuable for outreach as well as nostaglic alumni and angry 
students.  When you someday write to the ACLU when they someday finally try to 
shut you down for real, you'll have it all right there, online!!!

My house is having a Howard Dean house party Sunday, hahahahaha...out of the 
frying pan and into the fire.
