Subject: MIT 'hacking'                          UpdReq 

Well, the latest MIT 'hack' wasn't what you might think. No computer
systems were violated and no software was pirated.
No, this one happened 2 days ago when a group of students built a car
on top of the campus' Great Dome and had the car made up to look like
one of the campus police vehicles.
Inside of the car was an inflatable female sex doll dressed as an
officer, with a little mustache painted on. In its hand was a drawn
water pistol and next to it were several empty coffee cups and pastry
remains. On the back bumper was the sticker "I brake for donuts" and
the car was fashioned with a vanity plate which said "IHTFP" which is
an anacronym amongst techies at MIT. It translates cleanly to "I hate
this $#%@* place!"
The car was a Chevy Cavalier husk, outfitted expertly with flashing
red and blue lights and so forth. It is presumed that it was
pre-assembled into 4-5 sections elsewhere on the campus and brought
up quickly under cover of darkness and fog... then put together on
top of the dome.
MIT has a long history of such 'hacks' and they are being enshrined
in the school's museum. Previously, the Great Dome was fit with a
large pink nipple and turned into the Great Breast. The primary
definition of a proper 'hack' is that they harm no one and do not
offend more than half of the campus.
