The Top Ten Reasons to be a SysOp
1. You secretly enjoy abuse
2. You really have no other life
3. You have all this computer hardware "just laying around"
4. You enjoy throwing your life savings at hobbies
5. You have this "thing" about collecting shareware
6. You got tired of playing all the levels of Wolf3-D
7. You never like to see your children or spouse
8. You hate watching T.V., Fishing, Hunting, and Golf
9. You never plan to play Doom! Or unzip it to "check it out"
10. You can't pay less than five digit phone bills. <VBG>
