My esteemed co-author Greg Hoglund is doing another bout of screensavers
tonight

In a completely different (and more conventional) use of the word
screensaver, I saw something that gave me pause last week.  It was a sign
that said in large black letters "DO NOT USE SCREENSAVER."  It was at the
airport, on the controls to the mobile jetway that drives up to the plane
and lets us disembark.  I shudder to think why they need this warning.
