ROTFL, with references... (3) C. Anderson did not develop this technique, rather is was passed on to him in exchange for money he paid for taking an English course. And In the court filings S. Tzu has claimed that since the double quoted signature is an integral part of his new marketting initiative, without which a "substantial monetary hardship" will be incured by S. Tzu, Mr. Anderson should be bared from a competing usage. bwahaha amd phbthtbptht and furrfu, my two cents, troll away... Um, see alt.folklore.urban for a true canonical listing of name""surname. In an ironic twist, see "Philosophy of patenting was[Re: HR400]" posted by me on 13 may 97 at interaction.brunel.ac.uk, and please notice my signature at the bottom. Scott "prior artist" Sehlhorst

The s* has really hit the fan now! Milberg Weiss & Aloha Announces Chip Anderson and Sun Tzu Named in Expanded Securities Class Action** PR Newswire - October 19, 1998 15:44 LAHAINA, Oct. 19, /PRNewswire/ -- Notice is hereby given that a class action complaint was filed today in the United States District Court for the District of Hawaii on behalf of all persons who posted to the Silicon Investor TDFX thread ("SI" or the "Thread"), between May 21, 1998, and October 19, 1998, inclusive (the "Class Period".) The complaint charges Chip and Sun Tzu during the relevant time period with violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The complaint alleges that defendants issued a series of materially false and misleading statements, completely bracketed in patented quotation marks concerning the defendants financial results, operations and melancholy state of mind. Because of the issuance of this series of false and misleading statements, the price of 3DFX common stock was artificially inflated to $11 during the Class Period. Prior to the disclosure of the adverse quotation marks described above, certain posters and investors sold significant amounts of 3DFX stock to the unsuspecting public, these sales generated losses of millions of dollars. Plaintiff seeks to recover damages on behalf of class members and is represented by the law firm of Milberg Weiss & Aloha among others. Milberg Weiss & Aloha maintains offices in New York City, San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Lahaina and is active in major litigations pending in international, federal, state, civil, bankruptcy, small claims, yes, even tennis courts (not to mention Judge Wapner) throughout the United States. Milberg Weiss & Aloha has taken a leading role in numerous important actions on behalf of defrauded posters, and is responsible for a number of outstanding recoveries in which, the per-capita aggregate payouts total approximately $1.32, or the approximate cost of one imported beer.
