Why are you saying "M$" instead of "MS"? Don't you know the dollar signs ("$") is not kosher for Passover since U.S. dollars constitute leavened bread? This makes all Perl, PHP and Bash/zsh code (And some Ruby and Haskell code) non- kosher for Passover. Seriously now - I detest people who use "M$" instead of "MS", not as much because I respect Microsoft (which I do to a substantial extent), but because I respect the dollar-sign, which among other things is the emblem of Objectivism: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Objectivism_%28Ayn_Rand%29 Regards, Shlomi Fish (who is about to embark on a mission to write a fully kosher operating system from scratch to avoid any foreign worship influences on software used by heavens'-fearing Jews.) > פסח כשר ושמח > > (And happy April fools as well :) > > -- > Ilya A.
