The poster shows a wizard that looks kinda like you mixing various Unix tools together to make a potion of some sort. The only thing that isn't obviously some sort of pun on an aspect of Unix is a canister labeled Oregano in the foreground of the picture. Is there some significance behind this, other than the obvious "oregano" double meaning? Did you guys really use "oregano" to help drum up your creativity for the original Unix development? Just curious. -mjs - - - - - - - - Return-Path: dmr(a)research.att.com
