I met my boyfriend by spying on him in a computer cluster.  On our old VAX
system at IU, someone had written a program called "Mymap" which you could
use to scam on other users in a cluster.  In his .plan file, it said that he
was a Marine and a Republican, and I thought, "Challenge accepted!" I later
struck up electronic conversations with him and he sent out some signals which
clued me in to his repressed orientation.  We've been together for a
year and a half now.  (He's no longer a Repub., BTW)
