vfork(bog); execv(sleep_cry_eat)

Note: most everyone will realize that "spawn()" was the correct system call to use in this instance. Clearly I was not thinking straight.

As far as I know, we are only increasing by 50% at the moment.
Given zero fecundity, however, quintuplets are possible. Stay
tuned.

Relevant details:

When? due Nov. 1

What? we don't know. It'll wear Carolina blue, in any event.

Sick? not really. but she gets tired easy.

How Long Have You Been Trying? None of yer damned business. I've
been trying all my life. I was BORN trying.

What did my Mom say? she made a funny squeaking noise and passed out.
