      There are plenty.  Just the other day I had some major idiot that made
a program that iconified, moved, and terminated windows at an alarming
pace.  I think he is even a senior.  He nearly caused damage to my project.
I know I can type 'xhost -', but there are ways around that, and I hate to
see the friendly atmosphere of the workstation room close up because of
one fool.
        But like in so many other instances the majority of people dissaproved
and he ended up getting quite a scare.
