I won't dispute your age, or how many layers of pearl are on the seed
Larry, but MP unix was a thing long long ago.

I am pretty sure it was written up in BSTJ, and there was Pyramid by
1984/5 and an MP unix system otherwise running at Melbourne University
(Rob Elz) around 1988.

You might be ancient, but you weren't THAT ancient in the 1980s.

anyway, pearls before swine, and age before beauty.
