From: "William Grogan"
Date: Fri, 07 Apr 2000 09:45:13 -0400
Subject: A final followup on Gus/ photo

After Grogan foolishly proposed a hypothesis about why one never observes 2
or more Gusses at the same event, Indiana cast doubt on it with:
"Oh, nay nay, this festival had two other gus's in the audience.
And if you count the guy who brought his tambourine it would be a total of
four.
And at times I could swear I heard another one, but I couldn't locate
him/her so t would be an unofficial count, so I won't add to this years
crop."

After which, Tim Norris raised posed the following question (and answer,
sorta, as he alluded to The Grogan Hypothesis):
But, how many Gusses could Gus Gus if Gus could Gus Gusses Gussing
Gus???
This and many other questions will be answered in the upcoming action
thriller film, 'When Gusses Collide.' :)

OK folks, I'll admit that Indy has raised some serious objections to my
hypothesis, but please note that the other Gusses weren't in extremely close
proximity to the Gus in the photo. Therefore, I offer a modification to my
original hypothesis as follows: The 2 or more Gusses must be close enough
to each other so that the disonance sounds coming from each creates a force
so powerful as to cause the total annihilation of the universe. Yeah, that
oughta work.

Finally, my esteemed colleague, Paul Messinger obliquely referred to me (and
therefore derisively to my hypothesis) with:
"physicists . . . geez . . ."

I want it known for the record that I am most definitely NOT a physicist,
I'm an Entomologist. If I were a Physicist or actually knew anything about
that subject, then I would have been smart enough to wisely stay clear of
any discussion dealing with paranormal subjects, such as our
nemesis...............Gus. All true Physicists already know that all things
dealing with Gus are simply out of the realm of normal science, reason and
general understanding.

Jokingly,
