  A true navy story from my Navy days.  
         When I was a Navy civil servant, every engineer who went out on 
 his first ship qualification trial would get hazed.  Usually it was being 
 sent to get batteries for the sound-powered phones....  
     My favorite was always sending someone for a bucket of 
 steam....that or a snipe punch. 
Stud stretchers are popular with the contruction crowd...

New pages to Congress are given important messages to
give to Senator Cornpone...

And to get this back on-topic, at IBM, new hires were
sent to see Dr. Herman Hollerith to get the final answers
on important questions.
