I could not resist and had to look it up, and alas: I am wrong.
Morgenröte says, literally:

  "Man verdirbt einen Jüngling am sichersten, wenn man ihn
  anleitet, den Gleichdenkenden höher zu achten, als den
  Andersdenkenden."

This actually surprises me, as I seem to have misinterpreted
Morgenröte when I read it. But as with any Nietzsche work, it's
different every time you read it again anyway.

Sorry for pretending to be intellectual.

micro$oft encrypts your windows nt password when stored on a windows
ce device. but if you look carefully at their encryption algorithm,
they simply xor the password with "susageP", Pegasus spelled
backwards. Pegasus is the code name of windows ce. this is so pathetic
it's staggering.
