That's what i call a "Molly Malone":

    She died of a favor
    From which none could save her
    And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone

Were there any witnesses when you killed him?

Ah!  Thanks.  Not in my repertoire.  I'm accustomed to typing
what I mean and shunning any system overrides.

"Line"?  I say "prefix".  Or am I contaminated by XEDIT jargon.

Once I was having trouble with an EXEC2 (IIRC).  I asked our BOFH for
help (small department).  He leaned over my shoulder; added a command;
SAVEd; and tested.  Failed because I ran XEDIT with CASE Mixed.  He
quickly XEDITed again; UPPER *; SAVE.  I was furious; complained to
our manager; perhaps asked for recovery from backup.
