Do people really still use "cat" for viewing files at the commandline?

#32Where do I file a bug report? The date of "Frodo & Bilbo's birthday" was actually given in the book as September 22nd. In my file it's 09/14.
One source for more information is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Middle-earth_calendar#Hobbit_Ca...
(Personally, I celebrate on Sept. 22 and Mar. 25 just for simplicity. I'm not sure what I'd do if an important event had fallen on Mid-year's day.)

Thanks for posting this, I didn't want to spam the comments with the whole man entry (haha, "man entry"). I'm just super curious where the nasal/plants thing comes from or even how it works. Is this going to be on the next episode of Taboo[0]? [0] http://channel.nationalgeographic.com/channel/taboo/

#36cat /usr/share/calendar/calendar.music also gives some notable dates in music-history.
Seems like biased towards some bands, while omitting some arguably greater or at least equally important bands of the same era. Not that there's anything wrong with Yes or Jethro Tull being mentioned, but if they are, seems like Genesis and King Crimson should be mentioned as well. $ cat /usr/share/calendar/calendar.music | grep Genesis $ cat /usr/share/calendar/calendar.music | grep "King Crimson" $ cat /usr/share/c…

#37Since it includes what seems to be a full Emacs distribution, Mac OS X also contains a few "easter eggs" in /usr/share/emacs/22.1/etc:[1] - What is claimed to be the Mrs. Fields cookie recipe - How to say hello in many languages - An interview with Richard Stallman from 1986 - Several adult-themed man pages [1] 22.1 is the appropriate directory on 10.8.2, it may be different on older versions of OS X.

" Necrophilia would be my second choice for what should be done with my corpse, the first being scientific or medical use. Once my dead body is no longer of any use to me, it may as well be of some use to someone. Besides, I often enjoy rhinophytonecrophilia (nasal sex with dead plants)."

That explains it. I was confused when I read "Destruction of the Ring" a third of the way through, and "Fellowship begins Quest" at the very end. I wonder whether the developers _could_ have put them in chronological order, ex. 12/13/3019 appearing before 03/18/3021; or if the format requires the ordering it has now.
It's probably out of order on purpose. I'm betting this was some of the test data that the developers used, and they just left it in when they finished.
Have some fun:
