Can we please stay on-topic?  Stephan's email seems to have sparked a lot
of Christian-bashing, and I can't see how that is on-topic.  Sure, he
probably deserved to be flamed for not finding the "beastie_disable" knob,
but I am offended by some of the emails I've seen.  Since when is it
acceptable to ridicule a person's religious beliefs on stable@?
