Hate to be pedantic, but Unix started the same year I was born (1969, at
Bell labs I believe) and I'm not quite 40 yet........

See... it's statements like that... 30 years... GEEZ... What an OLD,
outdated, LEGACY system we have!!!!!
<VBG>
one man's years of experience is another man's antique...

I guess that the 40+ years that UNIX has been around only really amounted
to
about 5 years of development and experience... that would explain why it's
seen as "new"...  <SOKMN>
