Is it coincidence that root's uid = 0,
which is how much intelligence is displayed
by doing that?

All the same, at the last installfest I went 
to (not in Phx), there were a couple of young
lads, and an old fart, too, that never created
a unpriv login.  They did everything as root,
just like in Windows 98.
