I've been programming the UNIX computers here at Waterloo logged on to
the VT100.  My friend told me that the UNIX computers can have more
than one person programming them at the same time. This is hard to
believe.  He couldn't explain what would happen if two people weren't
doing the same program. How would the computer keep track of the
floppies? There would have to be more than one keypad, that doesn't
make sense.

On the other hand, I have sometimes noticed that the UNIX seems slow
during the day and fast at night. I figure that it's just because more
people are awake in the daytime and so there's less charge available
down at the power plant for us computer programmers.

He said to use the Pnews program to address comp.unix.wizards and try
to find out.

Many thanks wizards,
Lindsay.

Somebody apparently thought UNIX-WIZARDS was a list server to which you
mail "help" to get further instructions.

>help: Command not found.

	$ help
	msg number or comd name? help

	help:
		help [arg]

	(When all else fails execute "help stuck".)
	$ help stuck

	stuck:
	First, if you know the value of the system error number (errno),
	you can look up a description of it in INTRO(2).
	If you don't know the error number, or you don't understand what's going on -
	Try the following, in order:
	1. Make sure the answer isn't in the documentation.
	2. Try to write(1) to anyone logged in as "adm".
	3. Contact your UNIX counsellor.
	4. File an MR (see System Administrator for instructions).

Now, wasn't that helpful :-?
