Well of course, DoHS' color coding system exists in nature and there is a direct provable relation between it and "terrorist in our world." and it is not a subjective matter under the whim of some entity or anything.
You conservatives (trolls?) never fail to amuse me.

Not so. I was surprised when I mirrored an slashdotted site. I set my apache to full logging and waited. After 1500 hits, I found that 68% where on Linux alone (Phoenix, Konqueror, Galeon, and standard moz.)
FWIW, it was sunday and the story was on the "developers" section, so: 1) This "work" excuse might actually have a merrit. 2) A developer's story might attract an slightly more sophisticated slashdoter than one who reads (say) games section or your usual YRO arm-chair activists.
P.S. There were no other Unices, just Linux, and if you count OS X about 20 or so hits.
At my previous job, there was this strange lady who ALWAYS spoke about sex. Everything she said, was in one way or another related to sex. I was new there and was shocked at how nobody restrained her for her perversion at the work place. I told some coworkers about it, and they didn't seem to mind, but they weren't interested in joining/developing her conversations either.
Later on, I became friends with her (not wanting to sex her, since she was not my type, and quite frankly I wasn't her type either.) I got to know her and found out that she is subscribed to 2 porn sattelite channels which she gets for cheap, and she spends most of her evenings in AOL channels exchanging video-chat-thinggie with others.
This woman turned out to be NOT interested in any of her coworkers (us) and was able to shut down all the advances with her skilled rhetoric and not so subtle put-downs. She had NO reason at all to use sexual metaphors in such frequency. She didn't want to project a perverted image to a bunch of computer geeks (she knew better.) but the problem was that her private world rotated around her sex life, she had no friends, no hobbies, etc. only a well charged dildo and virtual reality. So her verbal skills and mental capabilities were reduced to that subset of english that never makes past my procmail filters.

You are right, we (I?) use lambdas to glue together code that is too simple or rarely used to become a named function, say as arguments to other functions (e.g. mapcar.) But no substantial body of code should remain un-named in a good program.
back when I got my PhD and was job hunting, I applied for a couple of jobs with SAIC. They looked like a good company to work for. I ended up with a job somewhere else before I got interviewed with SAIC, though.
A friend[1] of mine has been driving one for the past few months, and the thing is about to fall apart.

Nope. I was hacking on dosemu when this happened first, and we all agreed NOT to read stolen MS source code. There are plenty of other DOS reimplementations, like the one from the "dissecting dos" book, it and MS-DOS are both writen in assember.
I don't know about Wine, I guess they would take the same approach and reimplement the system anew, based on the documented interface (i.e. the API.) and not resort to behind-scenes hacks.
