Subject:   Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

The Bang-bang-Star-TH-ASSERT-Bang-Bang-TODAY-P-Bang-Bang-Star-GSB-P
connection machine utility will be demonstrated this afternoon. It
automatically disembowels any user who fails to scatter at least
fifteen bang bangs amidst the syllables of each function name. Now,
many users have complained that disembowlement is a bug; they have
requested that perhaps they should just be thrown into the Fep, or
maybe Purgatory instead. I would like to insist that the disembowling
error handler is part of the system design. In fact, all writers of
user-level system utilities are encouraged to disembowel as many users
as possible, even if their code is chock full of bang bangs in all the
policically correct places. All come.

Bang bang!
