Quote: The Smithsonian Institute announced today that they will
display the body of the "world's stupidest man" in their
Natural History Museum. The body of Ed Conrad will be
featured in a niche of the museum, laid "in state" under
glass. It is felt that such a display, accompanied by a computer
containing a database of Ed's USENET posts, will provide
the American public with comedic entertainment and a prime
example >of Stupidity, and will allow future Americans to enjoy
this "Freak of Nature". The body will be treated with a "black"
acrylic finish to give it the appearance of being made of "coal".

Now THIS is going beyond the limits of decency and fair play!
NEVER have I been SO insulted.
Granted, I DO have thick skin but something like this is absolutely
unbearable.

Imagine, the Smithsonian Institution announcing I am to be
one of their main attractions -- probably getting more attention than
the Wright Brothers' airplane or Admiral Byrd's still-frozen beard --
and not even informing me about it ahead of time.

You'd think the Smithsonian, of all institutions, would have
the common courtesy to let me know *before* it appears in
the Newsgroups.

Well, I guess they're mad about something but I just can't put
my petrified finger on it.

Come early and get a good seat!

I didn't know the Smithsonian was a coal-mining museum
