"They were the first ones up against the wall when the revolution
came", to quote Douglas Adams, THHGTTG.
Actually they were in the later waves, as oftemn happens in
revolutions. Those who at fist denounced others were in their turn
denounced. Robespierre comes to mind - couldn't happen to a nicer
person :-(. I don't think he wrote viruses.
