My .xmodmaprc:

        remove Lock = Caps_Lock
        remove Control = Control_L
        keysym Control_L = Caps_Lock
        keysym Caps_Lock = Control_L
        add Lock = Caps_Lock
        add Control = Control_L

But what would happen to [Osama's] cool armor if he
could be reminded of all the good, nonviolent things he has
done? Further, what would happen to him if he could be
brought to understand the preciousness of the lives he has
destroyed? I firmly believe the only punishment that works
is love.
