[Cialug] OT: Real Programmers

[Chris Freeman]

I hadn't noticed the comment.

It does remind me of the only O(n) sorting algorithm:
1. Randomly assign positions in array. (Due to 'splitting realities', there
exists a universe where the array is correctly sorted.)
2. If array is no correctly sorted (O(n) operation), destroy the universe.
3. Profit!!! er., sorry Fini!!
