twenty years ago i was asked by a journalist to similarly explain why
i was using UNIX.

i ended up saying "UNIX says screw you, i agree". it was one of the
few random comments he didn't print.

no 9fan needs to ask. they just get the job done because they know
that what they are doing is much more sensible in 9-land than in some
kids spinning brain.
