	Thank you, Scott! I'm surely not mindless. :-)

	Generally speaking the best place to seek for VERY old
	and VERY weird machines is Soviet Union. You should not
	trust me but I've hacked machines from relays and gas-filled
	tubes, transistors and (of course) all generations of ICs
	(I'm 25 years old). Now I'm hacking 486; but the PC right
	to me is a Soviet clone of DEC Professional 350 with a 5Mb
	hard disk (it REALLY works! I've ported Unix to it ;-)
	I've seen a ternary machine /with logical 0s, 1s and -1s!/
	(SETUN', this weird one mentioned by Knuth in "Art of Prog.")
	BTW, someday I'll choose a bit of time to tell you a whole
	lot of funny stories about Soviet machines and Soviet hackerdom.

	Hello from Moscow!
