9/11  "taste good" Clinton said after sticking a cigar into Monica's twat
      and then putting it in his mouth

9/11    According to the cs9e reader there is a way to tell when the last
        time the tr command was invoked.  I personally think this is full
        of crap but I have to answer this question or I fail the class.
                \_ You make failing 9e sound like a bad thing.  I thought
                        it was such fun I failed it twice.
        \_ On some systems (depending how the filesystem is mounted, whether
           exec(2) updates atime, whether you have GNU ls) you can
           ls -l --time=atime `which tr`
           \_ how did you ever figure that one out.
                \_ i had the same cs9e assignment in Fall '92.
                   i used the lastcomm solution, but the grader
                   pointed out atime.  -jwang
        \_ Also "history | grep tr" to find the last time (ordinally) that
           you personally ran it.
                \_ only if your shell is tcsh and you've run it in the
                        last $history commands (often only 50 or 100)
        \_ "lastcomm tr" (see lastcomm(1) for details).
        \_ I personally think that anyone who thinks they need to take
           cs9e is full of shit and doesn't belong near this side of campus.
                \_CS9e is great for L&S majors who use that extra unit to
                   hit the 13-unit reqt.  And if you ignore it you can take
                   it over and over again and no one cares!
        \_ Why don't you tell Clancy that.
           file on the instructional computers listing everyone's account
                \_ Mike Clancy is almost as stupid as Tom Clancy
                        \_ Mike Clancy is much more stupid than Tom Clancy.
                \_ He's the worst prof of all, because he's not even PhD
                        \_ That's why he & bh are "Lecturers" not profs
                           (bh's PhD is in Education, not CS).
                   \_ Being a PhD doesn't mean you can teach, as many profs
                        here prove.
        \_ Are you really that lazy?  Look it up yourself!
        \_ CS9e was designed for the BSD-based UNIX systems that are all gone
           now - many things just don't work anymore.  (Hint:  there is no
           text file on the instructional computers listing everyone's account
           info - it's all stored in NIS+ databases now.)
           \_ since when was BSD or /etc/passwd obsolete?
                \_ neither one is obsolete, just not used on the EECS Inst
                        computers you have to do your CS9E homework on
                        (which run HP-UX 10.20, Solaris 2.6 & Digital Unix 4.0)

9/12    How do you pronounce daemon?  Is it damon or demon?  And what's
        the origin of that word?
        \_ Ketchup . Catsup. Ketchup . Catsup. Boy, hard decision.
        \_ day-mon, from old english
        \_ day-mon; origin of word is in `webster daemon`, of course (either
           from christian or greek myth, depending on whom you believe).

9/11  If I hear one more person on tv complaining about the explicitness
      (is that a word?) of the Referral, let's remind ourselves that it
      had to be that explicit to actually see if Clinton lied.  It was him
      that wanted a definition of sexual relations, so that he can twist
      it somehow to get away with saying "no."  It was him that
      lied to everybody, and tried to coverup for 7+ months.  Let's face
      it, he screwed up once, and screwed up once more to cover it
      up.  Most people would have cared less if he had an affair, its
      the lie and coverup that pissed a lot of people off.  I just wish
      people look past the sex (kinda hard, I know), and see why the
      Starr handled the investigation the way he did.  Now that's off my
      chest, what's the best footnote?  On the news, 210 and 318 was
      mentioned by some dude on a boat, how about fellow sodans? --byeung
      \_ what the hell are you talking about? people are upset that he had
         sex with her you idiot.  And don't give me that bullshit that you
         wouldn't lie yourself if someone asked you in front of 6 billion
         people whether you had sex with a nasty looking woman.

        \_ Oh boy, i thought i saw the last of that neener-neener-neener
           bullshit attitude when I got out of the 7th grade.
           Incidentally, byeung you're pretty damn cool man.
