This has the structural tone of a classic. We need a place to store it, but not just a place
to enshrine its wisdom and wit. It must be open to allow a branch where it can be embellished
and polished to the finest finish possible, albeit, still allowable by the Lords of the Wiki.
While the original should be venerated as the Core. The Branch should be known by a related
but better naming, I modestly suggest it become the Kernel-Humorous.
Just think to the delicious mayhem when the Gentoo-DOM add their non-taxable, non-profit two
cents. And think of the better Debian embodied in the Free Solaris skewing free of reason.
Of course, it would not be done until the better Unix build as exhibited by the
Windows-Whatever were allowed to make their mark. Only then would it be done with their six
point "x". Ah the horror ...

As a point of order, Gentoo actually *already* does this. It starts with runlevel "boot" and then
moves to runlevel "default." The scripts themselves contain information about dependencies and
the init system takes care of everything. It's actually fairly nice.
