I have fixed a few bugs in the talk, some submitted, others found, and re-published the presentation.  I'm sure there are yet more, and the offer for a free round still stands for any bug found.

Notable Fixes:

@slide.27 ... credit: Jan Schaumann
< ps aux | grep "runaway" | awk '{ print $2 }' | xargs kill -30
> ps aux | grep "runawa[y]" | awk '{ print $2 }' | xargs kill -30

@slide.28 ... credit: Jan Schaumann
< ps aux | awk '/runaway/ { print $2 }' | xargs kill -30
> ps aux | awk '/runawa[y]/ { print $2 }' | xargs kill -30

@slide.47 ... no-arguments in argv-list handling for Solaris Bourne shell
< exec /usr/bin/awk -f "${0%/*}/table2json.awk" -- "$@"
> exec /usr/bin/awk -f "${0%/*}/table2json.awk" -- ${1+"$@"}

@slide.55 ... this wasn't actually producing a factorial, or an infinite loop ... now it does.
