Soon, the club enacted a rule banning all objects capable of sustained flight from the club for a period o ninety-nine years and one day. Thereafter, it became established procedure for the club to issue reprimands by declaring certain people "capable of sustained flight." I now propose to express my displeasure with aspects of FreeBSD (which almost never happens, honestly!) by declaring them to "lack arminess." My thanks to Glen Barber and Colin for creating this terminology. -- George
