Could be - the EFI / POST did a memory check and everything seemed fine on the next two boots.
Worst comes to worst it'll be a holiday to the UK to replace the box :)

Something had gone horribly wrong with RHESUS, one of its front panel LEDs was flashing red.

Ok thanks! I've added the Gnuplot test output to
http://rullf2.xs4all.nl/sg/doc.html
It is fun using Gnuplot in XTerm with the Sixel driver!

Under the first image with ReGIS you mention Sixel but there
is no image. Did you create a Sixel image with Gnuplot?

It is hard to imagine, but perhaps even Captain Kirk sometimes played
a Sudoku before boldly going where no man has gone before:
http://rullf2.xs4all.nl/sst/sudoku.html
There are nine entities in the Sudoku chart, but a Starfleet ship
may be a Galileo, Faerie Queene, or an Enterprise; a Klingon may
be an ordinary one, a Commmander or a Super Commander. (This depends
on a Greek-Latin square).
The Sudoku is played backwards, because the Federation is under attack.
Entities are removed at random if they take up a unique position.
In a fight, the strength matters, but if you take up a unique position,
you are trapped and may be destroyed.
It was good that Kirk practiced in a game first, because in the first
battle he lets the Galileo fight with a Klingon Super Commander.
Next there are some easy battles; in the one but last battle, a
Romulan ship disappeared from Quadrant 1 - 2, Sector 3 - 1.
Captain Kirk did not notice this in the next battle at Quadrant 1 - 2.
The Enterprise has nowhere to go, but the Commander can move to Sector
3 - 1, and Kirk loses another ship...
He then decides he might be better at real missions :)

If you have an editor that can create RTFD, you can dispense with the [* ... *] notation as the doc will have the pics in the right place (remember that RTFDs are bundles and need to be zipped).
The magazine is laid out in columns like a "proper" magazine (easier to read) but it's hard to promise EXACTLY where a picture will go in your submission. We'll run the submission by you before going live of course, and correct it as much as possible

Hello!
Note that README. A while ago one of the lists I subscribe to had that
name idea show up. It seems one of the subscribers dutifully sent that
idea to the list. Naturally the list server believed it and used it.
However the back end figured out who he was and made sure that his
e-mail was probably sent out.

Can't speak for Huji on VMS; haven't tried it yet. For modern
platforms, you probably want to start with the funet fork of the Huji
