I could make a fortune in the coffee table gift book market by putting out
a collection of photographs of rural mailboxes, and changing my name to
Lillian Virgina Mountweazel!
Nihilartikels, Mountweazels, and pseudata are a longstanding tradition.
XenoCopy includes support for a format for which I had the only instance
(prototype) of the machine. Was that esquivalience?
I also once misspellled the name of one format; a couple of other programs
ended up supporting that misspelt machine. BTW, my car really was parked
in "Gates Alley" at the time.
