Figuring I'll reboot into my freshly compiled kernel, before continuing with any real work (which is not to be mistaken for 'actual work', but just the usual hacking/fiddling around)..

shell# init 6

Sasha has left the building.

Yes, it is. IIRC, it was invented during the course of a competition wherein the contestants had to come up with the smallest functioning compiler (or something like this).. Google and Wikipedia have the answers and while you're at it, Google up "Esoteric Programming Languages" and check out some of the weird stuff there is out there, especially in the "Obfuscated Coding" categories. Really interesting stuff!
