I had a good laugh; not so much that I didn't see some version berfore,
but because it was so nerdy, so I was laughing more to that.

I don't find that joke offensive in any way; but non-programmers
don't understand the programmign humor; but then how many of
non-programmers would look at that file. I personally didn't even know
it existed untill you started the discussion.
