[UCLA-LUG] Getting rid of "^M"s in vi

[MARQUEZ,RANDELL JAMES]

Also, if you are editing this file after getting it by using ftp, that
means that you chose to transfer using 'bytes' instead of 'ascii' (or
maybe it's the other way around..hrm).  This is just my suspicioun as to
what was happening since I've seen all the ^M's get appended onto files
that come over FTP incorrectly.  Have fun...
