Unix software and USSR

[Alex Martelli]

	...what should crypt("Do you believe me?", "XX") return?...
	In URSS:
>|#	The result should be:  XXcXimKPpq0M.            :-) :-) :-)
	In Europe (and USA?!?):
>|	XX0/imINzSUs.
	...
>the real version may not be exported outside of the US.
>Ridiculous isn't it?

Particularly as our non-URSS version seems to spell out something
like "nothing, I'm in SU"!  Jung or R.A.Wilson would have enjoyed
this "synchronic coincidence"...
