    Actually, it is a feature of the unix operating system
    in keeping with some of the more basic philosophic tennants
    that have guided its composition over the years, e.g. errors
    and system notice/warnings are not to be hidden, and that
    it should instruct the user as to its innner workings.

    It annoys the shit out of me sometimes, but its usefull to know
    whats going down.

    This is off-topic, I spose, but in some sense salient to
    system security.
