once again i am taken aback at the good taste of the residents of the unix room.
As a whilom denizen of that esteemed playroom, I question
both the accuracy and the relevance of that metric.
Besides, what happened to the sheep shelf? Was it scrubbed
away after I left? And, Ken, whatever happened to Dolly the
Sheep (after she was hidden to avoid upsetting visitors)?

I understand that Dave Presotto bought that photo at a garage sale for $1. The photo hung in
the Unix Room for years, at one point labeled “Peter Weinberger.”
One day I removed it from its careful mounting and scanned in the photo. It bore the label
“what, no steak?”
The photo was stolen from a wall sometime after I left. The scanned image is at
