The resident astronomers would indeed most fiercly protest the lumping
in of "astrology" with "astronomy"!  My god, man, have you never
talked to a Cornell Astronomy grad?? :-)

Uh.  As much as I admire the classification, I shrink at the thought
of the press attention that `ports/occult' might attract, especially
with our devilish little mascot! :-)  Geeze, we get enough bizarre
tirades from the religious right as it is!

Hey!  I got it!  Let's wimp out and go for a ports/misc - all the
stuff we can't figure out how to classify! :-)
