Off-topic comment:
*Some* documentation *is* software. For instance, when I create a help
file, it is an executable. I'm sure there are other examples of
documentation that is software out there. The lines are blurring, folks.

Important information about Penguins:
"Humans did not evolve from apes. They evolved from penguins.
A penguin added the letter X to the alphabet as a joke. This
is indicative of penguin humor.
Penguins have always listened to rock music.
Penguins gave us the notion of relativism. For penguins everything
has always been both black and white."
- from Penguin's Penguins by Dennis Traut
