Wait, what's your point?
That UNIX is based on Multics? So what?
That AT&T "stole" from Bell? Tell me you didn't just draw a line between Lucent and BNL.
You might want to find a better source to back that up than one that's going to take the most pro-Bell (read: anti-impartialism) standpoint possible. :p

Ah, my bad, I thought you were taking Jenda's side with *that* link of all the ones out there (which would be very weak). ;)
In layman's terms: I goofed. Read too much into it. Vops. :D
