I'm trying to find the origin of that phrase (which I've likely mangled);
V5 or thereabouts?
v5 ps manual (v5man.pdf page 94)
The process unique number (as in certain cults it is possible to kill a
process if you know its true name).
v7 usr/man/man1/ps.1
.TP
PID
The process ID of the process; as in certain cults it is possible to kill a process
if you know its true name.
