Emacs splash screen

OK. I am an Emacs users. Whenever I am working at a command prompt I go right for Emacs. I can get around with vi, but I cut my teeth on Jove (Johnathon's own version of Emacs) and it's what I like.

Recently I have been working on some newly setup servers and every time I start Emacs, I get that stupid splash screen.

Well, here is how to get it to go away.

Edit you .emacs file ($HOME/.emacs) and add the following line.

(setq inhibit-splash-screen t)

and Bye Bye splash screen
