A surprise

At the GNU Public Dictatorship we are nothing if not difficult to surprised, but we must say that it was a great surprise to learn the "Edgar" applied for membership in the Board of Dictators again this year.  Actually, that wasn't the great surprise, as we know that "Edgar" is bent on world domination any way he can get it.  The real surprise was that he applied under at least 83 distinct aliases.  Our application review process quickly noticed that the sleep numbers and Tetris high scores were the same on all 83 applications, which led us to further investigation.  We're not sure if that was meant to try to get a callback or as another denial-of-service attack, but we are sorry to inform him (and other applicants) that more applications does not increase your chances of being chosen in a GPD "election".  We have reviewed this case and we will still review "Edgar's" original application in the interest of good will.
