Given how the LispMs have a world view that is diametrically opposed
to current reality (i.e., they believe that the network is a safe
place), that's probably the better option, even.  Throwing yet another

One of my other long-term projects is to see if I can get a stripped-
down ssh-oid running on a PDP-11/23, preferably without using overlays
(on RT-11, not one of the BSDs).  Slowness is relative.
