/ Congratulations! You have purchased an  \
| extremely fine device that would give   |
| you thousands of years of trouble-free  |
| service, except that you undoubtably    |
| will destroy it via some typical        |
| bonehead consumer maneuver. Which is    |
| why we ask you to PLEASE FOR GOD'S SAKE |
| READ THIS OWNER'S MANUAL CAREFULLY      |
| BEFORE YOU UNPACK THE DEVICE. YOU       |
| ALREADY UNPACKED IT, DIDN'T YOU? YOU    |
| UNPACKED IT AND PLUGGED IT IN AND       |
| TURNED IT ON AND FIDDLED WITH THE       |
| KNOBS, AND NOW YOUR CHILD, THE SAME     |
| CHILD WHO ONCE SHOVED A POLISH SAUSAGE  |
| INTO YOUR VIDEOCASSETTE RECORDER AND    |
| SET IT ON "FAST FORWARD", THIS CHILD    |
| ALSO IS FIDDLING WITH THE KNOBS, RIGHT? |
| AND YOU'RE JUST NOW STARTING TO READ    |
| THE INSTRUCTIONS, RIGHT??? WE MIGHT AS  |
| WELL JUST BREAK THESE DEVICES RIGHT AT  |
| THE FACTORY BEFORE WE SHIP THEM OUT,    |
| YOU KNOW THAT?                          |
|                                         |
