religion of CHI
     
        /ki:/ [Case Western Reserve University] Yet another hackish
        parody religion (see also {Church of the SubGenius},
        {Discordianism}).  In the mid-70s, the canonical "Introduction
        to Programming" courses at CWRU were taught in {ALGOL}, and
        student exercises were punched on cards and run on a Univac
        1108 system using a homebrew operating system named CHI.  The
        religion had no doctrines and but one ritual: whenever the
        worshipper noted that a digital clock read 11:08, he or she
        would recite the phrase "It is 11:08; ABS, ALPHABETIC, ARCSIN,
        ARCCOS, ARCTAN."  The last five words were the first five
        functions in the appropriate chapter of the ALGOL manual; note
        the special pronunciations /obz/ and /ark'sin/ rather than the
        more common /ahbz/ and /ark'si:n/.  Using an alarm clock to
        warn of 11:08's arrival was {considered harmful}.
