+Subject: GDB sing-along
+
+
+Somebody asked us what was GDB. With apologies to Oscar Hemmerstein
+II, Richard Rodgers, and Julie Andrews, we offered the following reply:
+
+Let's start at the very beginning, a very good place to start,
+ When you're learning to sing, its Do, Re, Mi;
+ When you're learning to code, its G, D, B.
+ (background) G, D, B.
+ The first three letters just happen to be, G, D, B.
+ (background) G, D, B.
+
+(Chorus)
+ G!, GNU!, it's Stallman's hope,
+
+ B, a break I set myself.
+
+ D, debug that rotten code,
+
+ Run, a far, far way to go.
+
+ Print, to see what you have done,
+
+ Set, a patch that follows print.
+
+ Quit, and recompile your code - - -
+
+That will bring it back to G,
+ D,
+ B,
+ <link>
+
+(Resume from the Chorus)
+
+
+:-) Joel Bion, Mark Baushke, and Lynn Slater :-)
