OT and no excuse

[Roger Eller]

Mark, I think this phenomenon can be easily explained.

Well, let's try anyway...

In programming, a function that calls itself is known as recursive function
and the process of calling function itself is known as recursion.  A not
very funny definition of recursion is given as a dictionary entry:

*Recursion [n] :* See Recursion.

So, imagine yo mama calling herself repeatedly, and multiple instances of
yo mama calling herself until first, the phone company infrastructure
itself implodes.  This in turn causes an exponential explosion from
multiple mamas (really the same mama, aka: yo mama) from multiple alternate
universes.  And this results in a mass of yo-mama particles, known in
science as yomamaintites (pr: yo-mama-in-tites) greater in mass than all of
the alternate versions of yo mama combined.  All of which are trying to fit
into a tiny little outfit, and ultimately overflowing over the top. And
that good sir, is known as a "stack" overflow.
