Having seen NULL abused so often, I have decided on a new
slogan: "NULL, just say NO!"

On an assignment, always use 0.  In a function call, always cast
a 0 to the appropriate type.

Hey Chris, do you think we should combine our missives (mine is
<402 at proxftl.UUCP>) into an article for news.announce.newusers?
We might get it into the "most frequently asked questions"
section under the title "NULL considered harmful!"

:-) I think.
