Bravo!  While we're at it, I wish people would stop using "buss" instead of
"bus".  A bus carries signals (or people) from one place to another.  A
buss is something you wouldn't mind getting from Raquel Welch.

Now you can get everyone to learn how to spell "interrupt" correctly.

Now you can educate everyone on the number of R's in interrupt.

And while we're at it, maybe we could spread the word on "kernel",
which does NOT have an "a" in it, though that spelling seems to be
gaining in popularity for some reason.

Dan,
	Aw, come on.  Weren't you let in on the secret that true hackers
have 'karnel knowledge'?
