What  annoys  me  the  most about ShellShock? This vulnerability could
 have been discovered by me. It should have. In fact,  it  should  have
 discovered by *anyone* who used Bash for more than 5 minutes. :-(

 Reading  through  some  of my older Twitpher postings. In June 2013, I
 wrote about mousing devices and keyboards. Since then, I was  able  to
 use  a  Thinkpad  for  a  couple  of  months.  Trackpoints  are  often
 considered "the holy grail" but I  actually  found  it  to  be  a  bit
 disappointing.  I'm  a  lot  faster when using a mouse (any mouse will
 do).  Trackpoints slow me down. Plus, this particular  Trackpoint  was
 already  "worn  off"  by previous users. Hum. Somehow, I was expecting
 these things to last forever ... You know, high quality IBM stuff.
