A friend asked me the other day what EMACS stood for, as a joke I told
him the two pseudo expansions that I know: Emacs Make All Computing
Simple and Escape Meta Alt Control Shift.  I was curious if somebody had
kept a list of these most controversial expansions and was willing to
send it to me for archival purposes only.  Yea, I know this has been
done before but of course wasn't around at the time.  Thanks.
