LOL.  Doesn't that just tell us exactly where Linux has come to?  Unix/Linux
used to be a toy for young hackers - or at least a tool for young
engineers.  Now most of us here are probably old enough to be suffering
middle-age short arm disease.  I used to be short-sighted - I _could_ read

glasses so that I can read the label on the wine bottle...
