Oh great computer,

We pause a moment to remember your program pdksh who served the users faithfully 
and well for so many CPU cycles.  We ask that you accept it's bits and comfort 
those who have come to rely on, and will now miss, this your shell interpreter 
as we lay it's memory space to rest.  We know your will is often difficult to 
understand as to why you have chosen to remove this program from our disk.

Never the less better it than me.

Amen.
