<pulse quickens> How many more times will some bozo read the note about
fixed-points of cc's stderr, try it, and post an article saying `it doesn't work,'

an octave>  Stop it!  I promise NEVER to say anything funny in the 
presence of dullards again!  <foam appears at corners of mouth, convulsive
shaking begins, KABOOOOM -- head explodes>
