Is anybody else seeing duplication of postings?
I have seen this message at least three times!
At first, I thought it was GMAIL, but I've cleaned that out.

>MULTICS came out around 1965, which then became UNICS, then UNIX.

UNIX was independent of MULTIX, developed by Bell Labs (Ritchie & others).
There is a whole web site with the history, maintained by Bell (or whatever 
they've become).

UNIX was a pun on MULTICS.
