A knight that didn't quite make the cut in Monty Python and the Holy Grail. He was to have crossed the bridge in the following scene:

Bridgekeeper: Stop! Who would cross the Bridge of Death, yadda, yadda, you know the rest.

Brian: Ask me the questions.

Bridgekeeper: What... is your name?

Brian: Sir Brian of Bell

Bridgekeeper: What... is your quest?

Brian: To code the one true operating system.

Bridgekeeper: What... are the only three lower case letters that are not legal options to the unix command ls(1)?

Brian: BSD or System V?

Bridgekeeper: Umm... I don't... IEEE!
