oh, and in the article it he mentions not knowing a good way to quit
screen; you can use ^a ^\ to quit.

(from the info page):

~ - Command: quit
~     (`C-a C-\')
~     Kill all windows and terminate `screen'.  Note that on VT100-style
~     terminals the keys `C-4' and `C-\' are identical.  So be careful
~     not to type `C-a C-4' when selecting window no. 4.  Use the empty
~     bind command (as in `bind "^\"') to remove a key binding (*note
~     Key Binding::).
