    Here at work, different groups have been marking their territory with Symbols; lighting bolts and Ohms (Omega) symbols for the hardware guys; Various tools for the mechanical guys; But what are some software symbols? I’ve thought of some binary (10100) and possibly a snippet of assembly language, but that’s about it. So what are some symbols for software?

                  Sounds good. Or maybe hitting a lightning bolt with a mallet.

                      On power switches, they have a symbol for 'On' and 'Off', which is kind of the embodiment of a 'bit' or 'true/false'...how about that?

                                          ... is that like a death threat to the others? Roach #1: Hey. Have you Johnny? Roach #2: Nope. Last time I saw him, he was running down the hallway Roach #1: (looking around) OMG! He's hanging on the wall with a spear in his head!!!! Roach #2: (turning away) I can't look. Roach #1: Disgusting. There is NO WAY I'm coming out from underneath this cabinet now Roach #2: I ... I ... I can't take it, I'm going to go take a hit of Raid and lay down. :rolleyes:
