 *  RIP Traditional UMN Home Master Gopher
 *  
 *  [We] like to consider the hundreds of interconnected Gopher servers
 *  to be one large distributed entity; thus, we speak of "the Gopher",
 *  with its many small parts, spread throughout the Internet.
 *  The Gopher is always growing, always changing. It's everywhere, but
 *  you can't locate it; it's always there, but you can't see it.
 *  [...]
 *  The Gopher is the largest and most practical example of applied
 *  pantheism in the history of mankind.
 *  Harley Hahn & Rick Stout,
 *  "The Internet Complete Reference" (1994)
