Ok, so I installed strace. Please keep in mind that I'm a Java developer
by nature, and a systems guy by necessity. :)
Here is what I have, and I'm not too sure how to interpret it. Thank you
for the help, btw! :)

“If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of
their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks...will
deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on
the continent their fathers conquered... The issuing power should be taken
from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."
-- Thomas Jefferson
