Magic Switch Story          Some years ago, I was snooping around in the cabinets that       housed the {MIT AI Lab}'s {PDP-10}, and noticed a little       switch glued to the frame of one cabinet.   It was obviously a       homebrew job, added by one of the lab's hardware hackers       (no-one knows who).          You don't touch an unknown switch on a computer without       knowing what it does, because you might crash the computer.       The switch was labelled in a most unhelpful way.   It had two       positions, and scrawled in pencil on the metal switch body       were the words "magic" and "more magic".   The switch was in       the "more magic" position.          I called another hacker over to look at it.   He had never seen       the switch before either.   Closer examination revealed that       the switch had only one wire running to it!   The other end of       the wire did disappear into the maze of wires inside the       computer, but it's a basic fact of electricity that a switch       can't do anything unless there are two wires connected to it.       This switch had a wire connected on one side and no wire on       its other side.          It was clear that this switch was someone's idea of a silly       joke.   Convinced by our reasoning that the switch was       inoperative, we flipped it.   The computer instantly crashed.          Imagine our utter astonishment.   We wrote it off as       coincidence, but nevertheless restored the switch to the "more       magic" position before reviving the computer.          A year later, I told this story to yet another hacker, {David       Moon} as I recall.   He clearly doubted my sanity, or suspected       me of a supernatural belief in the power of this switch, or       perhaps thought I was fooling him with a bogus saga.   To prove       it to him, I showed him the very switch, still glued to the       cabinet frame with only one wire connected to it, still in the       "more magic" position.   We scrutinized the switch and its lone       connection, and found that the other end of the wire, though       connected to the computer wiring, was connected to a ground       pin.   That clearly made the switch doubly useless: not only       was it electrically nonoperative, but it was connected to a       place that couldn't affect anything anyway.   So we flipped the       switch.          The computer promptly crashed.          This time we ran for Richard Greenblatt, a long-time {MIT}       hacker, who was close at hand.   He had never noticed the       switch before, either.   He inspected it, concluded it was       useless, got some diagonal cutters and {dike}d it out.   We       then revived the computer and it has run fine ever since.          We still don't know how the switch crashed the machine.   There       is a theory that some circuit near the ground pin was       marginal, and flipping the switch changed the electrical       capacitance enough to upset the circuit as       millionth-of-a-second pulses went through it.   But we'll never       know for sure; all we can really say is that the switch was       {magic}.          I still have that switch in my basement.   Maybe I'm silly, but       I usually keep it set on "more magic".          {GLS}          (1995-02-22)

Message Transfer Agent          (MTA, Mail Transport Agent) The program       responsible for delivering {e-mail} messages.   Upon receiving       a message from a {Mail User Agent} or another MTA it stores it       temporarily locally and analyses the recipients and either       delivers it (local addressee) or forwards it to another MTA       ({routing}).   In either case it may edit and/or add to the       message {headers}.          The most widely used MTA for {Unix} is {sendmail}, which       communicates using {SMTP}.          [Other OSes?]          (1997-02-28)
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Magistrate       a public civil officer invested with authority. The Hebrew       shophetim, or judges, were magistrates having authority in the       land (Deut. 1:16, 17). In Judg. 18:7 the word "magistrate"       (A.V.) is rendered in the Revised Version "possessing       authority", i.e., having power to do them harm by invasion. In       the time of Ezra (9:2) and Nehemiah (2:16; 4:14; 13:11) the       Jewish magistrates were called _seganim_, properly meaning       "nobles." In the New Testament the Greek word _archon_, rendered       "magistrate" (Luke 12:58; Titus 3:1), means one first in power,       and hence a prince, as in Matt. 20:25, 1 Cor. 2:6, 8. This term       is used of the Messiah, "Prince of the kings of the earth" (Rev.       1:5). In Acts 16:20, 22, 35, 36, 38, the Greek term _strategos_,       rendered "magistrate," properly signifies the leader of an army,       a general, one having military authority. The _strategoi_ were       the duumviri, the two praetors appointed to preside over the       administration of justice in the colonies of the Romans. They       were attended by the sergeants (properly lictors or "rod       bearers").
