If somebody wants to read the environment variables, you don't need
to create a flat tree from it.

Also, it doesn't solve the original problem as most of the informa-

become such a part).

I thought my people would grow tired of killing. But you were right,
they see it is easier than trading. And it has its pleasures. I feel
it myself. Like the hunt, but with richer rewards.
