Quote of the Day:


	Before he became a hermit, Zarathud was a young Priest, and

	took great delight in making fools of his opponents in front of

his followers.

	One day Zarathud took his students to a pleasant pasture and

there he confronted The Sacred Chao while She was contentedly grazing.

	"Tell me, you dumb beast," demanded the Priest in his

commanding voice, "why don't you do something worthwhile?  What is your

Purpose in Life, anyway?"

	Munching the tasty grass, The Sacred Chao replied "MU".  (The

Chinese ideogram for NO-THING.)

	Upon hearing this, absolutely nobody was enlightened.

	Primarily because nobody understood Chinese.
