Scientists still know less about what attracts men
than they do about what attracts mosquitoes.
                -- Dr. Joyce Brothers,
                "What Every Woman Should Know About Men"

Scientists were preparing an experiment to ask the ultimate question.
They had worked for months gathering one each of every computer that
was built. Finally the big day was at hand.  All the computers were
linked together.  They asked the question, "Is there a God?".  Lights
started blinking, flashing and blinking some more.  Suddenly, there
was a loud crash, and a bolt of lightning came down from the sky,
struck the computers, and welded all the connections permanently
together.  "There is now", came the reply.

Scintilate, scintilate, globule vivific,
Fain how I pause at your nature specific,
Loftily poised in the ether capacious,
Highly resembling a gem carbonaceous.
Scintilate, scintilate, globule vivific,
Fain how I pause at your nature specific.

Scintillation is not always identification for an auric substance.

SCORPIO (Oct 23 - Nov 21)
        You are shrewd in business and cannot be trusted.  You will achieve
        the pinnacle of success because of your total lack of ethics.  Most
        Scorpio people are murdered.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)
        Friends abound today, seeking repayment of past loans.  Smile.  Check
        for concealed weapons.  Your natural cheerfulness makes others want
        to throw up.  Knock it off.

SCORPIO (Oct.24 - Nov.21)
        You will receive word today that you are eligible to win a million
        dollars in prizes.  It will be from a magazine trying to get you to
        subscribe, and you're just dumb enough to think you've got a chance
        to win.  You never learn.

Scott's First Law:
        No matter what goes wrong, it will probably look right.

Scott's Second Law:
        When an error has been detected and corrected, it will be found
        to have been wrong in the first place.
Corollary:
        After the correction has been found in error, it will be
        impossible to fit the original quantity back into the
        equation.

Scotty: Captain, we din' can reference it!
Kirk:   Analysis, Mr. Spock?
Spock:  Captain, it doesn't appear in the symbol table.
Kirk:   Then it's of external origin?
Spock:  Affirmative.
Kirk:   Mr. Sulu, go to pass two.
Sulu:   Aye aye, sir, going to pass two.

Scratch the disks, dump the core,       Shut it down, pull the plug
Roll the tapes across the floor,        Give the core an extra tug
And the system is going to crash.       And the system is going to crash.
Teletypes smashed to bits.              Mem'ry cards, one and all,
Give the scopes some nasty hits         Toss out halfway down the hall
And the system is going to crash.       And the system is going to crash.
And we've also found                    Just flip one switch
When you turn the power down,           And the lights will cease to twitch
You turn the disk readers into trash.   And the tape drives will crumble
Oh, it's so much fun,                           in a flash.
Now the CPU won't run                    When the CPU
And the system is going to crash.       Can print nothing out but "foo,"
                                        The system is going to crash.
