a fanatic but you need to modify that a bit..... 
ps -ef | grep NERD | grep -v grep | awk '{ print $2 }' | xargs kill -9
Once you find the process(') you have to make sure your grep isn't one of them, then grab the process ID, then send that to the kill -9..... there are of course various other ways....
OP...nice tag....I had "SUN4U" a while back....most folks didn't get it.....good friend of mine had UNIX4 for his.......

So instead of "got root" it's "got enable" right?? LOL I've been in/out of Cisco, Redback and Juniper routers over the years....not so much on any of it anymore, more of a planning/engineering guy now, but I keep a Sun Box fired up at home in case the urge to "vi" something gets too great.

His mama. Traded y0 mama in because she was squeaking.
Hey, without them geeks (I say them because while I'm a gadget lover, I couldn't write any code for it), we'd still be driving carbureted cars.
My next vanity plate will be either:
1000101
or

As a fellow IT geek who lived in WV for a while, I like it! 
I'd like to get some WVU VA plates, but I figured I'd like to remain as anonymous as possible in beltway traffic. I'd hate to rub someone the wrong way in traffic and have them notice my car at a later date!
My 420SEL has a silver flying WV on it. A 126 is pretty rare around these parts (way too old), and with the wvu symbol on it, it makes it stand out even more.
I did consider plates that said some variant of 'diesel' or 'turbo diesel', but all of them were taken (by pickup truck drivers I'm assuming..).
anyways, nice looking car!
