Can we attribute the word 'Shunt' to you Bruce?  I was using this term a
few months ago to describe a jury-rigged portion of my software development
project and was stunned when my co-workers didn't understand the term.  I
had to explain to them the whole concept of a 'cheap universal part that
works as a stand-in for a real part in an emergency basis'.

Bruce -- here's to you on SunDog -- I still think of that game as the best
I played.  Between it and the Dao of Objects, you got a good thing goin'.
