    Some Vi riddles :

    -- Why is Vim like the Number Seven (7) ?


    --- Why are Vi-users so attractive and easy to get along with?

    --- How do you describe a Positive, Active, Up-beat Vi user?

    --- What do you call a vicious, harsh criticism by Vi-haters?

    --- What do you call a person who can see the Long-Term Future of text editing?
