If your cow had wheels she'd be a milk truck. The point is that not
everybody knows what you means, because there are contexts in which
you need to refer to both Unix System Services *and* to Unformatted
System Services; what you get is a guessing game as to whether USS
means Unix whether this time it really means USS.
