For some people the use of anything with a religious connection would be more, not less, offensive.
The fact is that there will always be someone who feels the need to make all they see conform to their subjective and restrictive view of the actual relationships of arbitrary systems. Suggesting that "kill" in the unix world has anything to do with humans is not reasonable and points to a more disturbing underlying belief of some people that technical forums should be used as a vehicle of nebulous conformity. That was the reason for my reference to AOL and divine intervention.

I have been here since the internet consisted of less than 1200 modems. Since AOL, there has been dulling of something truly brilliant. I had hoped this would have been something along the James Burke experience rather than what I see today

Sorry for the mini rant..

I'll be quiet now Smilie
