	Those who don't know Erik should realize that he is a major
Unix guru, most frequently found in the Well conference "pub" drinking
virtual green beer and insulting any Forth programmer who ventures
in.

	So it's alright, he's just that way because someone executed

		chmod 555

	on his brain cells a few years ago and he ain't learned anything
	since!
