Start editing your crontab in one xterm.  Get a phonecall and lose
brain state.  Edit your crontab in a second xterm, save.  Discover
that you were already editing it in the first xterm, and exit the
editor without saving your changes since you already made them in the
second xterm.  See "crontab installed".  Curse.
