I like this idea. While it's been a personal goal to help out at
least one person every day on the -questions or the newsgroup, I'm

will help prevent those from falling through the cracks, then sign me
up.

TASK: Go the the store. In OS/2: After fueling up with 6000 gallons
of gas, you get in the car and drive to the store with a motorcycle
escort and a marching band in procession. Halfway there, the car blows
up, killing everybody in town.
