But of course. From Lawrence Buja's .sig, digest 352, 12-Feb-92, the first
instance of this quote in the SOL archives:
"Nobody knows how transmissions work, or even where they come from.
They just arrive at car factories in unmarked crates, and the workers
put them into cars. Many people believe transmissions are created by
beings from other solar systems. There is evidence to support this
theory, namely transmission manuals, which contain bizarre diagrams
and deranged alien commands" Dave Barry
