"Some logics get nervous breakdowns. Overloaded phone system……" — Robert A. Heinlein

"Some logics get nervous breakdowns. Overloaded phone system behaves like frightened child. Mike did not have upsets, acquired sense of humor instead. Low one. If he were a man, you wouldn't dare stoop over. His idea of thigh-slapper would be to dump you out of bed — or put itch powder in pressure suit."

— Robert A. Heinlein
