MIT Gnome Invasion

J. Arthur Random writes "On Wednesday, April 23, hundreds of gnomes invaded the main public computer cluster at MIT. There were big gnomes, little gnomes, even naked gnomes. A gnome army carried the GNOME banner. Fortunately, the ACME Gnome Exterminators took care of the infestation within a few days."

    computer pioneer dies: rejected
    plastic gnomes on campus: accepted

    i mean, my choice is to vent my frustration, or hate slashdot for being kicked in the head. i choose to vent my frustration.
