Use the Fork, Luke, the Fork. :-)

Try using a fork -- the metal utensil -- to slice a tomato and see the sticky mess you end up with.

Like its namesake, fork is useful for somethings and not so for others.

everything on Windows OS is a thread, even the forks.
Everything on modern *nix is also a thread. Processes are simply single threaded processes.

With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
