During a week in which the Expert Working Group taught Tcl to signal,
"I am towing a submerged object" (at variable speed!), the
QOTW was: "[I]f you need more than 128 different exit codes, you've
probably got the wrong architecture of software." Donal Fellows
"Give one vendor carte blanche without appointing an overseeing
committee of _competent_ staff and you can expect that, at some point,
they're going to cross the power and neutral wires." Rick Kennell
