But to cancel the cron job, you'd have to edit crontab, then you'd have |
| 8 |
to remember to restore the crontab before trying another rule. |

I'd use a script to |
| 11 |
Backup working rules |
| 12 |
Set up at (or cron if you prefer extra work) to restore old rules |
| 13 |
Load new rules |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Otherwise, the one time you forget to schedule a return to the old rules |
| 16 |
in the one time you lock yourself out. |

I have seen things you lusers would not believe. |
| 23 |
I've seen Sun monitors on fire off the side of the multimedia lab. |
| 24 |
I've seen NTU lights glitter in the dark near the Mail Gate. |
| 25 |
All these things will be lost in time, like the root partition last |
| 26 |
week. Time to die. |
