But there is a price for such knowledge.  Unix has been around since 
1968.  Long ago, the tomes overwrote socially relevant data in our 
brains - you know, those books we read in grade school, whole bible 
passages, advertising jingles, our first memories, last week's plot 
details of Lost & Heroes & BSG & what was I saying?  Oh yea.  The 
good news is that because OS X has this ancient but stable 
underbelly, we can figure things out, hopefully.  Sometimes.

Unix _is_ user-friendly... it's just selective about who its friends are.

There are two major products that came out of Berkeley: LSD and UNIX.

sweat-shirt.  I need a warm cat.
