(*) Actually you can, but IBM charges serious money for it, and they aren't
nearly as much fun(**).

(**) Unless they are at a conference, and drunk;  but that is off topic for this
list.(***)

(***) We aren't implying that IBM personel would ever attend a conference,
consume alcoholic beverages, or consume such beverages while attending a
conference.  We just think that would be fun.
