http://crash.com/fun/texts/vaxen-dont.html says:
"The author of this piece is Jack Harvey, harvey(at)eisner.decus.org, and
it was originally published under the title "The Immortal Murderer" on
January 18th, 1989 on DECUServe, the DECUS member bulletin board."
And within two months it was already being copied around without
proper attribution - http://www.textfiles.com/100/vaxen.jok
