how_to_leave_the_planet once again 1. Phone NASA. Their phone number is (713) 483-3111. Explain that it is very important you get away as soon as possible. 2. If they do not cooperate, phone any friend you may have in the White House - (202) 456-1414 - to have a word on your behalf witht he guys at NASA. 3. If you don't have any friends in the White House, phone the Kremlin (ask the over seas operator for 0107-095-295-9051). They don't have any friends there either ( at least, none to speak of), but they do seem to have a little influence, so you may as well try. 4. If that also fails, phone the Pope for guidance. His telephone number is 011-39-6-6982, and I gather his switchboard is infallible. 5. If all these atempts fail, flag down a passing flying saucer and explain that it's vitally important you get away before your phone bill arrives. 031001 ... grendel get enough thrust behind you to acheive escape_velocity 031001 ... ohil ocean... 031001 ...
