My Geek Code
Jason reminded me about the Geek Code; that really takes me back. Those were the days when nearly everyone on the net could do a little programming, people waited until the low-usage late-night hours to access servers overseas, and Internet polls for president gave the majority vote to whoever promised the smallest government. How things have changed.
Like everyone else, I had my Geek Code proudly displayed in my email signature for a while. Unfortunately, due to the Great RAID Disaster of 2002, I don’t have my emails from before that year, so I can’t pull it out and dust it off. So for nostalgia’s sake, I made up a new one. Enjoy.

Yeah, it’s pretty lame now. I almost quit about halfway through, but I didn’t have any other blog ideas for the day ready to replace it.
I worked on an AIX system for two days, does that count? And I never did know who Kibo was, even when I was on Usenet every day. I looked around, but it doesn’t seem like anyone has done a new version. Surprising.
