Not only is sh a Ferrari, it's the Ferrari that real Ferrari fans think 
of when they think of the best possible example of a perfect vintage 
Ferrari. They forget how much trouble it was to keep running and how 
much it cost to get the parts sent from Italy when something went 
wrong. But that's OK, because when that Ferrari came out the only other 
cars on the market were a steam locomotive and a motorcycle with six 
different sidecars that you needed to carry in a trailer behind you 
because you had to switch them out when you hit different kinds of 
roads.

Every time you think about how hateful Bourne shell is, think about 
having to choose between things like JCL and CCP, and consider how much 
hate you've missed out on.

There's stuff above here
