Especially since "at" is more like a VCR than "cron".

And apparently "at" is a lot easier to get going: I
think I'm doing the cron thingy right and I can't get
any jobs to run (not even "run ls every minute from
6pm to 7pm on any month, day of the month, or day of
the week.").


And I always thought: the very simplest words
Must be enough. When I say what things are like
Everyone's heart must be torn to shreds.
That you'll go down if you don't stand up for yourself
Surely you see that.
