Want to know how many times user has su'd

[jwleger]

Is there a command to tell me how many users deep I am after using su? I use su all day long keeping many windows open on different machines and different users depending on the job at hand. How can I tell if the current session running in any xterm window, is the initial window, or some level of recursive su?
