Agree! 3 different UNIX's all derived from the same code base in the last 3
years and we are placing the same program in 3 different locations?? This
is day-light madness. No wonder Microsloth is giving UNIX a real run for
it's money. The time has come the the 3 Berkeley based UNIXes to start
talking to each other again.

It's foolishness like this that makes me wonder if I should have listened
to my mother and became a rabbi. ;-/
