Re: The times, they are a"changin"
Here at Waterloo the group takes sufficient pride in the term "hack" to have
options on commands that can list out or direct messages to the system hacks.
What is happening is that the pejorative term has been taken to our bosom and
laundered into an acceptable form.  Actually, we do differentiate between
"hack" and "hacker".  Around here, "hacker" seems to retain some negative
semantic index.
	I am too old to be a hacker.  The hours would kill me.  Hacks on
our systems are sometimes called trolls elsewhere.
