"But officer, I was only trying to gain enough speed so I could coast
to the nearest gas station."
Some people claim that the UNIX learning curve is steep, but at least you
only have to climb it once.
More than any time in history, mankind now faces a crossroads. One path
leads to despair and utter hopelessness, the other to total extinction.
Let us pray that we have the wisdom to choose correctly.
-- Woody Allen, "Side Effects"
