Cluefulness

Major Peter had the qualities making for a great leader of a Fighter Squadron, utter sincerity of purpose, high personal courage, and those general attributes of air-leadership consolidated in the pilot’s word, “cluefulness”

Jon used to complain that not enough people wanted towrite these: “All the clueful writers want to write about stuff that displays their cluefulness,” he once told me.

G is Gifting. It is defined as the amount of natural clufulness you were given “at the factoty.”¶ L is Learning. It is defined as the rate at which you gain (or lose) clufulness over time

In a rare burst of clufulness, U.S. export regulations were relaxed so that the DES cryptographic functions could be incorporated into the base GNU C library distribution without sending anyone to jail.
