Larry McVoy scripsit:
No offense intended, but why waste time on 386 (or
even way more time on
286)?
Why waste time watching football on television?
(This is a stock answer to the question "Why waste time on artificial
languages?")

One time I called in to the central system and started working on a big
thick 'sed' and 'awk' heavy duty data bashing script. One of the
geologists
came by, looked over my shoulder and said 'Oh, that happens to me too.
Try hanging up and phoning in again.' --Beverly Erlebacher
