At one employer, I did much the same with fonts (6-pt, usually, max

That sort of a setup would not be conducive to my non-residence in an
insane asylum. While my xterms do use small print, I have a nice blue-to-
black gradient on my background. So far, I haven't gone mad yet.

You don't think I've gone mad, do you?

You're a sysadmin, and you haven't taken a job as a gardener or cheese
maker yet. You _must_ be mad.

Still, I must admit that a slowly moving grid is not as evil as some of
the backgrounds I've seen. I'm looking at YOU, Mr. Aquarion, and your
blasted Lemmings!

Lemmings are good. Blue ball machines are better.
