Presumably. But if you're not topping up your barrels, perhaps there is a fine balance between "O" and "R" = Inoxidable.originally posted by SFJoe:
Don't you get some of the "R" word that way too, potentially?

I'd explain it, but I'm one of those people who just can't explain a joke.

Well, I enjoyed the applicability of the story (though I haven't written a LISP program in over 25 years (I think it was 1981)).

Never had cause to use it. I met Alan Perlis a few times, though.

Sadly (I think) no. I did room with an APL guru in college, though. The closest I came was teaching a class in TECO programming (the language famously described as resembling line noise).
