Dilbert, 01 February 1994:
Saint Dogbert seeks out technology that has
been possessed by the demons of stupidity.
He happens across a software developer.
[Developer:]
"I'll make the command easy to remember,
like `Ctrl-Alt-F4-Del'.
And if they forget that they can just
edit the source code in COMMAND.COM.
Perfect."
[Dogbert, waving saintly scepter at developer:]
"Out! Out!"
Now, far be it from me to suggest that Lars has been possessed by the
demons of stupidity. Hardly. But putting a useful command on a key
that is entirely unavailable to non-X users...well...
