I guess it is all part of getting old. I just cannot remember those linux short-cut keys which I found so useful last time. I have been scratching my head to try to recall how to get to the end of the file from vi… (this is sometimes useful when you are dealing with a very large file).. but I just cannot. Darn.

Somehow, even though there is insufficient power to prevent load shedding, authorities are prevented from correcting this demand and supply inconsistency by raising the price of power. Electrical power like oil prices are fixed at artificially low prices for fear of upsetting the general populace (my own guess… no official data to verify).
