Um, this wasn't even a reasonable response to Annamaria's posting. OMG,
what is wrong with some people? Oh, and BTW, it's peace, not piece unless
you're talking about one of the body parts buried somewhere by those
maniacal programmers. Yikes.
How I wish I had some virtual mace for some people.

Didn't you know that back in the 50s, before IBM and UNIVAC shoved their PC
crap up our wazoos, convicted murderers sat around in dark basements, tables
piled high with dismembered corpses, while architecting the technology that
today we take for granted?
Engineers teamed up for cross-country killing sprees, producing a vast array
of body parts as well as products that fueled today's IT revolution.
Piece!
