The real kicker is to do a depth-first find -exec rm -f ..... Did I
convince one of the professors back in shool (sometime just after the
dinosaurs got extinct:) to do that on a research box, containing
virtually all the ongoing work... And did he really do it,,,, and let
it run for _hours_ (slow disks back then:), until someone got a
"/dev/tty01: file not found"... Nah, I'm probably remembering wrong:-D
