Recently there has been some discussion on "pcal" (CALENDAR 3.0) that 
was hidden in /etc/fixes directory.  Well I found I even more mysterious
oddity!

/usr/bin/.!.   <-- note this is any executable.  Run it you will get a
laugh?  Now explain why it is here?  Why the list of people /usr/installed/.list
yet again another hidden file.  See what a:

	$ find / -name .* -print

Will do!!
