Or to be helpful quicker, as Skip's experiment demonstrated.
#plan9: correct answer in a few minutes.
9fans: no answer so far (1 day).
I don't know what this discussion is supposed to prove.
Russ spends time tracking down two errors in #plan9.
Sample space - large. Errors - 2.
Turns out one was quickly corrected so even without grepping
through 9fans we see one error in 9fans - quickly corrected.
Perhaps it's time for technical discussion rather than talking
about talking about plan9.
Just my morning rant.
