I am Root

Check out the Hacker Story I wrote last night in "Another Galaxy". I had a lot of fun writing it.

PS: "Root" is the most powerful user or access level in computer systems (mainly in linux). The dream of the hacker thus is to be "Root" to have unlimited access in a system. Another funny (to me and to everyone else definetely dull *LOL*) word game is that the whole hacker community is often called "underground" which really is the place for "Root"s :)).

Virus - I finished my story yesterday at work, but I saved it to the desktop and didn't send it to myself. So I'm trying to reconstruct it as best as I can and will try to post today. I got my idea from people who search for their roots via the internet and relifious fanatics who believe they are superior somehow because of their lineage. My niece is actually going back and baptising her dead ancestors because she thinks that will get her a higher place in heaven. Weird, huh?

Hello Young at heart! You could also have waited untill the next time you go to work, there was no reason to hurry. But your story is very amusing, it could also be a nice ironic criticism of what these religious groups believe in!
