This really isn't on-topic, but it's one of my favorite stories, so 
bear with me. :)

My husband, Rick Moen, is an avid vi user. Once, when he was 
entertaining Richard Stallman (for those who may not know, the author 
of emacs), Rick teased RMS by saying, "I hope you don't mind sitting 
next to a vi user."

RMS responded, "we of the Church of emacs believe that use of vi is 
not a sin, but rather penance."
