This is really a long shot, but I have have my kernel flush daemons become

So you think you know the real meaning of fear?
Yeah, you think you do know, but I doubt it.
When you sit in a shelter with bombs falling all over.
And the houses around you are burning like torches.
I agree that you experience horror and fright
For such moments are dreadful, for as long as they last,
But the all-clear sounds--then it's okay-- | -- Ilya Selvinskiy
You take a deep breath, the stress has passed by. | (Taken from "The Sum
But real fear is a stone deep down in your chest. | of All Fears" by
You hear me? A stone. That's what it is, no more. | Tom Clancy pg. 182.)
