Luser Attitude Re-adjustment Tool
LART
<jargon> (LART) Something large, heavy and painful, used to
respond appropriately to particularly annoying {lusers}.
The alt.sysadmin.recovery {FAQ} recommends the following
LARTs. A 2x4 works fine, but a real professional needs
something a little more effective. Unfortunately, this is a
very personal thing, and no consensus has yet been reached on
the group. Everything from a simple, 7.65mm Walther (for the
Bond fans only, it's not a very good gun) to a 155mm with
depleted Uranium rounds has been suggested, some even going
for exotic things like Thermite, nukes or flamethrowers. For
further info, look at the rec.guns home page.
