    oh yes! some of them are REALLY obvious, like that one on the telnet,
but when I read about the avian carriers (I subscribed to this list on
mid-april) I thought they were for real!

Saludos.

I suppose we could add a new category, Humor, and move the joke RFCs
from Informational to Humor.

Or, better yet, Disinformational.

Oooo...  I LIKE that!  But I'm still not sure enough people
would TAKE THE HINT.  I remember the day the RFC on the telnet
subliminal option came out.  Way too many people took it seriously
in spite of having a telnet option BYTE of 257.  :-/
