Whisky Competition!

[Edmund von der Burg]

Some clarifications:

  * The whisky is a 'Glenlivet 12'

  * code cannot be interactive (ie no asking questions etc)

  * 5.10 features may be used

  * copying my home directory to a remote server, deleting it locally
and then holding me ransom would score high on 'devlishness' but low
on 'humour' and so is unlikely to win :)

Cheers,
  Edmund.
