I don't know who this Mentat is,
but in my capacity as a retroact-
ive prophet, I predict he will
return, based on this information
delivered to me from the other
side:

"They say this young Mentat was
bright.
His posting was faster than light.
He departed one day,
In an Einstein-like way,
And returned on the previous night."

-Zooby the 100% accurate
retro-prophet.

Gamow)

Yeah, it's a good thing he wasn't a candidate for "funniest member" since it would have been way too hard to choose between him and Mr. Robin Parsons.
