Sheesh, what do you think this is {Plan9 | Unix | OpenVMS}?

The=20 principle can be established that for a man who does not cheat, what he believes to be true must determine his action. Belief in the absurdity of existence must then dictate his conduct. It is legitimate to wonder, clearly and without false pathos, whether a conclusion of this importance requires forsaking as rapidly possiblean imcompre- hensible condition. I am speaking, of course, of men inclined to be in harmony with themselves. << Albert Camus>>
