Aristotle replied to me privately, presumably to save me a public
shaming.  I will make my shame public because it led to more hate.

He said, correctly, that I should have run this:
	ps ax | grep -c '[S]tickies.app'

I thanked him, smacked my forehead, and implemented it.  When run,
however, I get the following error:

	AppleScript Error
	0

Thanks, AppleScript!
