From the egg's perspective, which is clearly the right one here, a chicken is 
only an egg's device for reproducing itself, making more eggs.

As I recall, there was someone who said: An adult is a zygote's way of making 
more zygotes. But I can't find a reference.

There is a mini-industry devoted to amplifying and magnifying the security 
lapses in, among others, Microsoft products that until now has given almost no 
attention to IBM software.

 

Any lack of candor about z/OS and z/VM security breaches will encourage this 
industry to focus its attention, sensation-mongering imagination, and 
considerable   investigative skills upon IBM software too.  They go where they 
smell red meat.

 

A brief interval to pound sand into the rathole before announcing its location 
and closure is admissible, but candor about breaches and their character is 
essential if confidence in the platform is not to be weakened.
