more, if I'de bothered to trace all the way down to an end-user, but I was
just going as far as a server.

" Then up ahead cold chilling in the street,
    six motherfuckers from MIT.
I flick off the safety, check my grip,
    and load a dum-dum clip.
I glance at the Doom to make sure he's packed,
    his fingers on the trigger of his baby Mac.
Time to give a Newtonian demonstration,
    of a bullet its mass and its acceleration."
