					When did BSD become/ 

This whole discussion is becoming quite comical.  Let's face it, both
os's have their supporters and flamers.  But to say that Unix is better
because it has better usage messages is even more comical.  I happen
to like its terse mesaages, because without them, there would be no
need to hire wizards, for then, who would be around to answer questions
about what "awk:  bailing out near line 1" or "uux partially failed"
REALLY MEAN....
