Truly it *is* worse than that! The tor devs apparently use computers,
so I *strongly* (notice those strong asterisks - I use them because
they are so strong) recommend people stop using computers.

It's waay fishy.

<strong emphasis>Way!<say I>

This one time, at GCHQ, I was like, so lost about how to fund tor.

And this one time, at GCHQ, I rang my friends at NSA.<really>

And this one time, at GCHQ, I found a way!<No way?!>

Then I stuck an onion up my mouse. Then the Siberian SVR branch office
mouse hunters came after me.
