I can't speak for others, but I don't consider myself a "linux"
person. I'm an Information Technology Professional (Ed Norton was a
Sanitation Engineer :-) and I consider it important to make sure
that people have accurate information. When I see posters spreading
gross inaccuracies I can't help but try to correct them.

SUCKS!!!111!!! YARRRRR!!!!!"
