   An axe? Why I remember back when we didnt even have axes.   
   A hacker was someone who was lucky enough to find a sharp rock and claim   
   it.   
      
   And nowadays the kiddies dont even want to use axes. Too slow for them. Too   
   much skill required. They want someone to give them a chainsaw. Fast, easy,   
   skill-less "hacker" tools. That aint hacking, thats just plain destruction!
