By itself, I think it makes an excellent case for the continuing utility of command line interfaces. It summarizes everything I like about the unix paradigm. Plus it's just a fun little word.
5. Ooooo, that looks like a wonderful class. I wish I could take it. I don't think I have a broad enough range to legitimately claim 'ancient technologies' as a whole, but I'll think hard about adding it if I get into a couple more. And I've already been thinking it would be interesting to try making a bow... and with the smithing I could do a crossbow. Hrm. Maybe I should just add it now. :)
