The posting that has been floating around the internet, including
our listserv, referred to as Dr. Suess Technobabble, was written by
a gentleman named Gene Ziegler.  The complete text of the poem can be found
at http://www.gsm.cornell.edu/staff/Gene/DrSuess.HTML

Its original title is "A Grandchild's Guide to Using Grandpa's Computer."

This poem has been recirculated so many times without the author's
permission, that he wrote a second poem called "Hang the Information
Highwayman!" at
http://www.gsm.cornell.edu/staff/Gene/Highwayman.HTML

I know how easy it is to find some interesting or humorous work on the web
or in your e-mail, and then repost them to someone else.  I HAVE DONE THIS
MYSELF!
So please don't take this as a flame if you were the one whose posting I
recently saw.

If you find something worth sharing without any claim of authorship, it is
probably worth doing a search on some keywords in the article to see if you
can find a complete copy that show who the author is, and whether she/he
wishes it to be shared.

Sorry to play the Grinch.
