The Sam Report: No Joy in Mudville

A truly wild month, in summary; yet one which still yields no permanent answer

By Sam Ormes, Senior Editor, s.ormes@genie.com

It's been a strange month since my last report. The Emperor was revealed to be naked. The Minister of Propaganda was revealed to be...a disappointment. The Usenet became a bloody battlefield. Carl resigned in disgust. Bloomberg bloomed. Alex angrily broke his long silence. And finally... the besieged Jason struck out and quit the game.

It was a strange month. More mud than joy.
