Can we PLEASE get the latest round of UNIX jokes into a more
appropriate group! (Note follow-up line.) I'm having a lot of trouble
wading through these to find messages asking about non-blocking read's:-)
And now--> The pot calling the kettle black:
>From article <864 at vsi.UUCP>, by friedl at vsi.UUCP (Stephen J. Friedl):

Those who were on the CMU campus in the summer (?) of '87 might remember
when a certain system developer accidently released a version of the
C-shell to the entire campus in which the message
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
was changed to
Excreting an apple (core dumped)
