Well, I suppose to be exact the inside of the shirt should say
"pro-singleton" and the outside "anti-singleton" --that would be like
Ruby where there is on #singleton method, but under the hood there are
rb_singleton... refrences. But then nobody would see a  "pro-singleton"
message on the inside of a shirt ;)

In any case, this little shirt has insipired me in other directions
too! As of this day, Aug 15th, 2006, I declare that the oft mentioned
"God particle" of T.O.E. be  dubbed the "Singleton particle". (If this
particle turns out not to be a Boson and there is such a thing as an
Anti-Singleton, then God help us all! ;)
