 Ok, just kidding. I'm curious though, how do you usually like to get
rid of terminal corruption?  Do you just close the terminal or are you
daring and try to reverse it by cat'ing out /dev/urandom or /dev/sda?
Sometimes I'll try cat'ing /dev/urandom, but something makes me think
that its dangerous to do that. Anyone know?
