Executive Summary:
	Deirdre: File types in extensions are bogus, macs allow
non-printables in file type/creator.
	Paul: (quoting only the part where she says macs don't use
file extensions) No, they use file type and creator fields, and here's
some details that are interesting.
	Rick: Deirdre is  an EXPERT and so you don't need to TEACH HER
this stuff.
	Nick: oh, golly.  Like that was obviously SOLELY FOR HER
BENEFIT.
