	Is this listing all files without these permissions, or all files with these permissions... it seems like it's with these permissions... – Webnet Oct 7 '10 at 1:20
	The `!` reverses the following predicate. – Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams Oct 7 '10 at 1:22
	Wouldn't this specification not take into account SGID, SUID, and items marked with the sticky bit? – mdpc Oct 7 '10 at 18:19
	@mdpc: Sure, but those aren't really "775" or "777" either. – Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams Oct 8 '10 at 2:45
