I was digging around my desk looking for something and I came across a
quaint piece of UNIX history. Many years ago HCR gave away “foobars.”
They had a gold one, which Rick “Seismo” Adams won and a silver one
that I have in front of me now. The ounce of silver was never really
worth enough for me to want to cash it in (I think Rick promptly did so
with his ounce of gold).
