Uh oh, more embarrassment....

Facing page 20 in the May issue of Unix Review is an ad from AT&T
titled "The More Advanced your Training needs, the More You Need the
Experts Who Created the UNIX System".

The photo depicts a man climbing a row of keys who's caps are
marked "BASIC"...INTERMEDIATE...

Finally on the screen is a bunch of code surrounding the word ADVANCED
in big letters. It appears to be C code, a sample:

	void srand[g] unsigned s; []
	int rand[] {return [O];   }
	/* REGCMP[3X] libPW */

(yes, that's letter "O")

One gem from near the bottom is (partially obscured):

			][] int*[*a]

Um, thanks, but no thanks, we just ran out of martian Unix customers,
do call again...
