(whom you've not met!) Hmm... *scratches head* heeeeh.

Great interview, aKho! Yeah, jet isn't the only one with the mistaken-gender problems. aKho did it at least 3 times, remember? But Jet, why'd you ask if she was on a diet? Hey djspinnet! No TV? Respect! Hmm, grilling time... 1. Why djspinnet? I know your friend suggested it, by why djspinnet exactly? 2. How do you know ZuePhok? 3. No fondest memory about ARP? Not even writing that Linux piece? How about choosing the best thing about ARP then? Lastly, pics!
