This is a dummy document.
The text and the figure have nothing to do
with each other.

A paraphrase of Arthur C. Clarke, radio engineer,
science fiction author, and the author of the artificial
earth-orbiting communications satellite in 1945:

{ \sloppy
\begin{quote} \em
	$\ldots$ sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable
		from magic.
\end{quote}
}

\begin{figure}[h] \centering
\mbox{}
\epsfysize=3.5in
\leavevmode
\epsfbox{bbox-test.eps}
\caption[Plot 1]{This is the first plot.  Interesting, isn't it?}
\label{Fred}
\end{figure}

Here is the LaTeX for the figure above:
\begin{verbatim}
\begin{figure}[h] \centering
\mbox{}
\epsfysize=3.5in
\leavevmode
\epsfbox{bbox-test.eps}
\caption[Plot 1]{This is the first plot.  Interesting, isn't it?}
\label{Fred}
\end{figure}
\end{verbatim}

A reference to figure \ref{Fred}.
\end{document}
