Who are we?

I am curious who we are, how did we come to unix/linux and what/why do we use unix?

1. I am aerospace engineer
2. I am from Seattle WA USA
3. I first came to unix though work
4. I have duel pc/linux sys at home but mostly just remote into my companies system
5. I do unix all day at work, I am not able to do anything with data by hand, I will always script it
6. I love unix because it takes the mystery out of computers

In a world where people still think the “mouse” was a step forward I just want to know who else understands the beauty of the following one liner, do you have a oneliner too?

Code:

   echo prime | awk '{p[++i]=2;for(j=1;++j<100000000;++l)for(n=0;j%p[++n];++k)if((j/p[n])<(p[n])){p[++i]=j;print j;break}}'
