    I think there's something vaguely social-darwinism about the brutal,
autocratic way "root" and his imperialistic "wheel" oligarchy dictate terms
of existance to other users.  In the future, perhaps FreeBSD4.0, I'd like to
see all users be given an equal vote prior to the computer performing any
type of potentially system changing activity.

    That would be much fairer.

<grin>

If were going to have a flare up of the "I think the XXX shell is the best"
holy war, do you think we should follow-up with a good ol' bout of "changing
the shell for root"?
