The events are in my Debian as well, but the (LOTR) isn't in there. So I can grep on Frodo but not LOTR.

I wonder how far back this goes. This is a typical geeky thing, and I bet it goes back into the 70's. You know, I bet by seeing which versions of *nixes have it and which don't you could pretty precisely figure out the date based on when the branch of the tree that has it split off from the others. Now I just need a login into some more flavors of UNIX machines. Anyone wanna try Solaris?
