What kind of weird sick joke is that? You had me worried for a second there...

[Maggi]

What makes you think it is a joke ?

[Maggi]

hmmm ... the dates are from 10th and 28th of september ...

Now I'm confused ...

Cheers,

You fooled me for a while.

[Maggi]

Seriously, I didn't want to fool anybody ...

I just wrote a mail to Anand and I'll let you know when he (hopefully) answered.

Definitely a sick and twisted joke... but fairly obvious, so perhaps not in that poor of taste. Killed by the Merced? That has a nitroglycerine core? Continuing reviews on his death bed? C'mon... Up that long, I would imagine Anand knows about it.

Something about reading again, Maggi...

1-1

Jord

[Maggi]

I really hope so, Jord !

[agallag]

That story was published on the 10th, and anand personally updated his site on the 12th. Unless someone's set up an internet connection to the afterlife, I'd say he's doing just fine...

[cirrus]

And what more, check out the month

quote from page:
Anand of AnandTech Dies
September 10th, 1999 03:51:59 AM

[agallag]

Oh yeah, that does say september doesn't it

[Electric Amish]

Yeah, I'm sure he knows about it... It's all over the AnandTech BBS. Most people over there thought it was pretty funny.
