Subject: RE: Computer haiku
Here is the story of how Computer Haiku contest winners were hijacked from Salon Magazine.

The Case of the Hijacked Haiku

Click on "results" in the article, and you can read the haikus that were posted as winners in the contest, which were then copied and pasted, deleting the author's names, and spread throughout cyberspace.

The list includes:
-------
Windows NT crashed.
I am the Blue Screen of Death.
No one hears your screams.

-- Peter Rothman
