Happy Birthday, HAL!


OK, so this was too funny a coincidence to let it go by and not blog!
I was logged into a Unix box, and tried switch to root (mind you I didn't have the password). So I try a [random] password, and I get back the infamous phrase from Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey:
"Just what do you think you're doing, Dave?"
Thought it was quite funny, and I headed over to IMDB.com and low and behold, the movie premiered (in NYC, Wash DC doesn't count, right!?) on April 3, 1968! Ok, it's geeky, nerdy, whatever. But I couldn't help but think: I'm *so* blogging this! :)
