sense to refer to software that was apparently created by rather spaced-out

This term was frequently applied to early versions of the

debugger. See also <a href="Berzerkeley.html"><i class="glossterm">Berzerkeley</i></a>.</p><p>Note to British and Commonwealth readers: that's <span class="pronunciation">/berk´lee/</span>, not <span class="pronunciation">/bark´lee/</span> as in British Received
