\_ Dave I have to say you are a sick bastard!!!!
Ok, newbies take note: you must now apparently progress through 'sick
bastard' stage to at least believe you can become worthy of calling
yourself a BOFH.
And I thought sick was when I dumped a large postscript render file to
the printer at 4:40 when there was a program due at 5 for most of the
people in the lab. It was a good 5-10 minutes before it spat out my
last sheet. *I* needed that printout to verify what was going on for
my assignment due the next week. The fact that *they* hadn't planned
was not my fault. :-)
We won't mention the evils of launching while(fork()) on the PDP
11/75s systems to clear the lab room when the intro engineering
students were stressing bad enough that it was a palpable miasma in
Surge IV.
Arrghh...I lost a quote file someplace. Damn. From memory:
"Dave, you have such a fresh, wholesome way of looking at
life. How ever do you manage?" -M. Cahn
Hmmm, are 'wholesome' and 'sick bastard' mutually exclusive?
:-)
