> Where did this "Chuck" stuff come from?  To quote Kirk McKusick:

It predates WC's catalog by a fair margin.  I've heard the daemon
referred to as `Chuck' as early as the late 80's.  Yes, Kirk
apparently hates it, but it'd be unfair of him to blame WC as the
instigators.  Sometimes a name just sticks and from whence it came
matters not. :-)
