Roger that OM :-)
So I guess my experience since BSD 1.0 and the decade-younger 0.96 kernel
doesn't count for much :-) Nor those thousands of lines of C, perl,
python, etc which
still spin around the world :-) Nor the 25% of America's voice calls
that I tend-to lately :-)
But that's OK OM :-) I wear a White Hat, so you are always safe with me :-)
Gonads, anyone? :-D
